Chicago takes the Cup–We take the papers.

Attention all (non-Bostonian) sports fans!

As we all know, the Chicago Blackhawks were victorious over the Boston Bruins to win the Stanley Cup.  For me, a recent Boston “transplant” to Chicago, it was bittersweet (but mostly bitter) to see the Blackhawks come out on top.  The hooting, hollering, and beeping in and around Clark Street wasn’t exactly the perfect lullaby to a frustrating night either.

But all of my Black & Gold pride aside, I was excited to support my new town in their glory.  And what better way to keep the celebration going than to give these die-hard “Hawkeytown” fans of Chicago something that they can hold onto forever!

It was strange to be gathering over one hundred copies of a newspaper that featured Blackhawk’s left-wing Patrick Sharp holding the Cup above his head in grandeur, but do you know what was even more strange?  The look on local Chicagoan’s faces as we carried all of the copies home with us.  Little did they know, Couture Planet would use these newspapers to create beautiful handbags–capturing the celebratory memories, high-fives and team camaraderie that came from the previous evening.
