Craft Show Season



It has been a busy couple of weeks! It was like the holiday season started the day after Halloween this year. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining! I love the hustle and bustle of making orders and getting ready for holiday farmers markets and craft fairs. My house is full of the scent of balsam, frankincense, myrrh, vanilla and spices. I'm sure there's some lavender in their too, but my nose no longer recognizes it as I have been working with it so much.
This weekend is the Fox Hospital Ladies Auxiliary Craft Show. There are over 100 crafters signed up to do the show! The level of creativity at this show is out of this world. Stop in if you're in the area! I'll be next to Dr Brody's office as usual. The hours are Sat 9-5 and Sun 9-3.
