With the Pope descending on Philadelphia, the city's shops and designers are creating some awesome threads and keepsakes. (
Philadelphia Brewing Company is also getting into the act, producing "Holy Wooder" IPA
.)
When you attend a big concert or an event, grabbing a souvenir is a great way to remember the moment. And with the pope coming to our area there are plenty of unique items being created to mark the occasion.
You'll find a Philly-fied find inspired by Pope Francis' historic visit to Philadelphia on the shelves at Monkey's Uncle in Doylestown.
"The turning water into wine kind of jumped into my head and knowing that we love water ice - one thing led to another," said Dan Hershberg, President and Owner of
Philly Phaithful.
The threads are the kitchy and creative work of homegrown Philly Phaithful.
The apparel company, based in the Northern Liberties neighborhood of Philadelphia, wanted to welcome Pope Francis to the "Philavatican" with a sort of South Philly-esque, modern day miracle.
