Sometimes back, while shopping for birthday cards, I fell upon this small selection of very funny cards, they had a few for the Holidays, a few for b’days and a few for just any occasion. They weren’t like the other cards for sale, these had real pictures glued on the front of the cards with some snappy catty comments on the inside, the perfect gay card. Finally. Since I couldn’t decide which one to buy, I bought 7 of them, including these two:
At the cash register, the clerk asked if I knew them from before as they had just discovered them and were going to get much more in the future. I told him I had never heard of Mikwright before but I sure was going to be buying them a lot in the future. He then turned my attention to two little books filled with the pictures they used with the caption, I couldn’t resist, I bought both of them too. These books are proudly displayed in our bathroom for anyone to peruse while using the facilities. When we have a party, I sometimes can hear people howling in laughter coming from the bathroom, I know they have just picked up the books.
Mikwright has grown a lot since then, they do much more than cards… I have some of their sticky notes, napkins, toilletery bag, magnet, etc. Go see their website, there’s a sale right now!!! OH I NEED THAT APRON!!!
…and they are based out of my home city! Charlotte, NC!…Their calendars are great too, but no calendar for next year 2009…so they are going to do a larger one for 2010!~
I sent the “Monica, dear…” one to my sister a couple years ago.
Thanks for the link to their website. I found their cards about 4 or 5 years ago at a local store and loved them. I bought some of them thinking that I would be buying my cards from them much more often. Shortly after that, the store I bought the cards went out of business and I never seen them around here again. And those Hallmark rip-offs, just not the same!
“Monica, dear” is on my fridge. LOVE him.
Mik Wright is FABULOUS!!!!!
