Goofing around on Instagram

Uncategorized Comments Off on Goofing around on Instagram

edit: erase, erase.  we’re going to just put everything onto one tumblr: giantpeach.tumblr.com.   Sorry, there’s just so much stuff to update these days, it’s hard to decide how to do it.

____________

find us @thegiantpeach or see it on web.stagram or scary big on our alternative-not-really-formatted tumblr.  It’s a teeny look into the day-to-day, but mainly just a lot of bad photography (especially when it’s next to B-Real, Phesto, Evidence, Babu…who are killin’ it with ridiculous photos!)

We also just threw everything away and started anew on our og tumblr (that’s mainly got new products).
