Remember when buying a Lisa Frank sticker transported you to a 3-D world of hearts, rainbows and kittens? Who says this type of eye candy should be limited to adhesive products and school supplies?! This Holiday season, Mirror80 has created a tabletop tree based on Lisa Frank’s Christmas stickers. Enjoy this DIY project–assemble as shown, or add an assortment of cute creature ornaments as you see fit!
An ’80s Modern Living Room at Christmas
Perhaps one of the best depictions of ’80s modern Christmas decor on film, Less Than Zero is the story of struggle and loss among a group of close-knit Los Angeles teens. Not the merriest of movies, but you won’t believe its slick interiors! Using today’s decor, Mirror80 has envisioned a Holiday room based on the Less Than Zero look.
