The best surprise for me, was that everyone was ok with me taking pictures. I asked every vendor first, and everyone was really nice. This is not normally the case - at past craft events I have had many people very angry when I take pictures. I think this is a little silly for two reasons - one, almost everyone sells there wares online. The pictures are out there on the web anyway. And two, if I really wanted to copy someone's idea, I would but the item, so I could examine it more closely. Anyway, I am happy that the paranoia is receding.
Bella sisters from portland. I wanted to get the bird pea-coat for Asha! We were also tempted by their botanical vests, but that's a story for another day.
Owls for Jessie
These necklaces are amazing - made out of old floral china. Very delicately shaped, and hinged together. She has an etsy shop, too.
This guy wins because he matched his paintings.
Jean's booth! I have to say their overall booth design was one of the best. I also super loved her terrarium ornament kits, faceted clay necklaces, and brightly colored silverware. If you've never seen here work, you'll find it here.
There were garlands everywhere! I wanted to bring them all home for Jenna. This booth made the best garlands, and I can't wait to visit their shop down-town.
Crewel work kits, from Tako fibers. Totally fantastic designs and colors, the etsy shop doesn't do them justice - if you're on the fence, I recommend getting one :)
String of pearls in small vintage creamers! Oh how I miss these little guys. This was yet another take-away idea. I didn't realize they don't need drainage!
These were fantastic - Mochi Mochi land. Check out the tiny, fat, unicorn. Seriously.
Erik and I immediately agreed that the braids were best. Everything this artist made was so full of life!
I'm a sucker for little geo designs like this one...
