The Renegade Craft Fair is by far my favorite show. Looking forward to spending one weekend at the cozy Pulaski Field House and then the next weekend in (hopefully) a sunny Los Angeles. In LA, I will be sharing a space with the talented Sonya Gallardo.

Oh, I love California. I am planning on squeezing in some movie time with Bret Iwan, attending holiday parties, and going to see California Design, 1930 – 1965: “Living in a Modern Way” at the LACMA. It is always so wonderful visiting and I am so thankful I have been able to sneak in so many trips this year with my hectic schedule. I have a feeling it’s going to be hard leaving the Golden Coast without a another trip in sight. Le sigh.

Also, I will be having a sale for Black Friday in my shop. There may be a Cyber Monday one as well, but it will be a different coupon. Happy shopping this holiday season and please support small and local businesses.

Well, it’s that time of year again – time for the Renegade Craft Fair Chicago. I will be at booth #224 with Laura George and Sarah Hernandez from Paper Tiger Cards. I am looking forward to holding down fort with these two lovely ladies!

Also be sure to visit: Circa Ceramics, Courtney Fischer Jewelry,Reuse First,and Paper Stories.

Let’s hope for no rain this year! Last year was perfect and since we barely survived the great rain of 2008, I am hoping for nothing but perfect weather Renegades from now till forever!

First one is this weekend in the beautiful suburb of Berwyn called the Constructor Craft Fair. If you’ve never ventured out of the city to Berwyn, it’s worth the trip. The streets are lined with beautiful, old brick buildings and lots of charm. I am excited because Magnolia Photo Booth Co from Louisville, KY will be there. They usually have a photobooth at the Renegade Craft Fairs and we tend to go a little crazy with photos! Plus, their photo quality is pretty good – a huge improvement from those cheesy photobooth photos in the mall! I am a huge fan of old school photobooths and Magnolia does a superb job.

Next weekend I wil be getting into a car and driving to INDIEana Handicraft Exchange. And if you happen to know me personally, you know I don’t drive. I drove both ways of the entire country last year and happened to luck out driving in the most remote states – Nebraska and Nevada. This is open road, straight ahead driving… So, yes, I will be driving again one year later. Bring it. I am looking forward to this show and for the mini road trip!

When we are full swing into summer, I will be traveling to San Francisco for the Renegade Craft Fair. I am very excited to be participating in the show for the second year in a row mostly because everyone is so darn sweet out there, I have a good core group of friends in Cali, and it’s a stunning world out there.
