It’s that time of year in the south. Lots of craft shows pop up in the towns and smaller cities. Plus, churches and schools host bazaars and crafts.
A friend and I went to two craft shows over the weekend.
One was in a small town in southern Tennessee. The show was small, but this also happened to be the first one they’ve held. There were interesting products in the small number of booths. My friend found two quilts she liked and bought. One was a yellow puzzle pattern with various blue paisley fabrics pieced among the puzzle and around the border. The other was a vibrant geometric pattern in reds, yellows with a black accent. Both were very striking and worth the price.
The second craft show located in a suburb of Atlanta included lots of booths with a variety of products – soaps, candles, woodworking, textiles, photos, paintings, jewelry (lots of jewelry) and other varieties of goods.
Craft shows are wonderful places to get ideas. Of course, you don’t want to copy someone else’s creativity; however their ideas can spark your interest and give you new ideas with your own flair.
In the meantime, funEZcrafts bought some crafts and took notes about other crafts that generated different ideas. We will be posting some new how-tos on the web site in the near future.
Enjoy craft shows in your own backyard. Buying their products supports local crafts people. The best part about craft shows, though, continues to be the ideas you get for your own crafting fun.
