ecstatic: Chocolate Peanut Butter

http://www.ecstatic.ca/bracelets/BW-04-008 I highlight this “Chocolate Peanut Butter” bracelet so you can all recognise the piece that I’m planning to buy. This isn’t an promotion for Ecstatic – it’s a warning to back away from my stuff, niiiiiice and sloooow.

katie muth original prints | designs

http://www.katiemuth.com/designs.htm Katie Muth should feel pretty proud of herself – I overcame a tremendous amount of seething jealousy over her talent in order to grant her a spot in the fair. Her prints are beautiful.

http://www.bellybabies.ca/fun.html The name Bellybabies now inspires an unfortunate Pavlovian response for me: My head jerks involuntary in an effort to protect my healing eardrums from the aural assaults of my sister’s sustained, high-pitched squee-ing. Visitors to the Last Minute Craft Fair should remember to bring industrial-strength ear protection.

Knotty Girls Collections

http://www.knottygirls.ca/Collections.html Knotty Girls make ribbon jewellery that is so unusual and classy, even my outer tomboy is interested. Unfortunately, it’s better suited to people with long necks and no double-chins, so my inner girly-girl silently weeps.

http://www.papersnake.ca/forsale_animals.htm Papersnake also sells twee accessories, but it was their wit that won them a place in the fair. I can think of a number of ex-friends and -acquaintances upon whom I would happily bestow a horse’s ass pin, but as that would involve seeing them again, I’ll hold off.

I Highly Recommend :: if the shoe fits…

http://www.ihighlyrecommend.ca/listing.php?cat=artists_artisans&url=iftheshoefits Bett from If The Shoe Fits… sent me one of her fantastic cards along with her booth payment. I opened it at work, and was immediately surrounded by impressed coworkers. One of them pointed out that the card was handpainted, which resulted in even more ooh-ing from the crowd. I’m planning to buy a […]

http://www.chubbycharms.ca/products.html I met the owner of Chubby Charms at my first (and last, likely – from here on in, I’ll organise instead of attending!) big festival. We were both n00bs, but while my tshirts went largely unsold, her dogtags sold like dogtag-shaped hotcakes. I can’t see myself getting a collar onto my kitty without grievous […]

Lindsays Candles &Stuff – Handcrafted Candles, Soaps and Bath &Body Products

http://www.lindsayscandles.com/ 2006 was the year in which I first nurtured my inner girly-girl. As I can’t quite shake the outer tomboy, however, I now refer to myself as a Soap Whore. I can’t wait to see what slices of heaven Lindsay brings to the fair.
