Local art fair: come see me and other artists in Waconia Sept 17th!

Next Saturday is Waconia's annual town festival: Nickle Dickle Days. There is a TON to do including: an antique car show, local retail sidewalk sales, live music and entertainment, and an arts and crafts fair. It's always fun and bustly, but not too crowded.

I'll be at Rhonda Tesch's house (100 E Main Street - right across from the park) with my new floral hair pieces. I just finished the last few this week and finished my display with pretty caramel colored ribbon today. Rhonda will be selling her beautiful home decor painted signs, and a few other artists will have great items for sale at her house. Come check us out and be sure to say 'hi'!

Here's my floral hair clips and headbands. What do you think? I hope it's a good variety and that they sell, sell, sell!

Local art fair: Volksfest & Art Fair in Victoria, MN

Yesterday afternoon I swung by the sweet little town of Victoria, MN to check out their annual Volksfest & Art Fair and I was really impressed with the number of kids activities: gymnastics mats, a rock climbing wall, a dunk tank, and face painting, just to name a few! The kids weren't the only ones having fun though - there were many food and beer tents and a wide variety of artists. The weather was perfect and the fair seems to be growing - I recommend you mark your calendars and attend next year!

One of my favorite TJ Brecht items.

One of my favorite booths was TJ Brecht's handmade furniture. You can check out a few of their items on their website, but I must say it doesn't do them justice! Their booth was very eye-catching and they have really unique, striking items including tables, small hutches, shelves, grandfather clocks, and more. Take a peek and let us know what you think. Don't you just love their pieces?
