Love a little kitsch, but it can stay at the store. Sometimes I find amusement in it.

kitsch #2
Collectible, nostalgia inducing products, artworks or people.
At some point mass produced and at a later point rising in value and sentimentality. Souvenirs, paraphernalia and memorabilia.
Written off as junk by the untrained eye. Appreciated as naive and beautiful by those with a discerning eye and a refined sense of aesthetic.

Kitsch #1
"Kitsch causes two tears to flow in quick succession.
The first tear says: How nice to see children running on the grass!
The second tear says: How nice to be moved, together with all mankind, by children running on the grass!
It is the second tear that makes kitsch kitsch."
The first tear says: How nice to see children running on the grass!
The second tear says: How nice to be moved, together with all mankind, by children running on the grass!
It is the second tear that makes kitsch kitsch."
-- Kundera
