Travis Smith Quotes


You have to remember that what we perceive now as kitschy or campy was not the intention when these decorations were originally produced. They were produced to be cute. We may look at them now and go, 'Oh, my God, that's hideous.' But back then it was considered charming. - Travis Smith



There's sort of a magic boundary line. Something has its moment, and then it's gone; it becomes thrift-store trash. But then, once enough time has passed, people say: 'Oh, yeah! I remember those.'
