Why I heart Cincinnati + an amazing Etsy shop!!!

There are SO many reasons I love Cincinnati. The people are wonderful, you get to experience all 4 seasons, we have our own MLB and NFL teams, our downtown is hip and up and coming, the food will rock your socks off, there are amazing parks and museums and it is home. I was browsing Etsy one day (dangerous past time) and looking for a Cincinnati print for our guest bedroom and I came across Farin's fabulous shop, Seaworthi. Farin is a graphic designer from Cleveland who obviously loves Ohio as much as I do because many of her prints show the amazing features of cities in Ohio. I love the mixture of different fonts and graphics. She captured my favorite Cincinnati spots perfectly!
She sent me this print and I'm in love. It comes in several different colors, but I had to go with Buckeye Red. I immediately went out and got my print framed and it is now in our guest bedroom so out of town guests can see how awesome Cincinnati is.
Now if you aren't from Ohio don't tune out because Farin also has some adorable prints for you non-Ohioans too! I love the Lumineers quote print below. Click here to see details about it.
So go visit Farin's shop now and then add Cincinnati to your list of places to visit...on your way to somewhere else. Haha. But really, Cincinnati is a wonderful place to live! What other city has a Purple People Bridge and Flying Pigs?

I didn't know you were in Cincinnati. My dad is from Dayton, and my grandparents still live there. I grew up going to Reds games. SOO many good memories!

So many great things you can find on Etsy! I have never been to Cincinnati, but I have been to Ohio. Lovely state.

I just read your comment about the farmers market, and I have a plan for you :) You should get out there do it, take pictures, and share your trip on my blog! That way you have encouragement to GO and I have another state to represent. Win-win! :) Let me know if you are up for it!

Both prints are so cute! I haven't been to Cincinnati before, but I definitely think it would be fun to visit! :)

Anne said...

Love it! Definitely something I would think about getting to remember all the things I loved about living in Cincinnati (a lot of the same - mmmmm, food) when I eventually move back to my home state :)

Another perk of blogging, I need to keep a list of places that I want to visit based on awesome posts like this one. I'm not too far, I think Cincinnati will be part of that list.
