Upcoming Events for 2015   

I am always researching and applying to craft shows in the area. If you have any suggestions for shows I should look at, let me know!

If you are interested in helping setup or pack up for a show, send me an email to inquire about volunteering opportunities.  This is a great opportunity for high school kids to earn a little cash or collect community service hours.  It's also good if you want to start doing craft shows yourself as I will share my experiences and lessons learned while we work.
