Strawberry Swing!

On Sunday, I attended an all stay craft fair here in Kansas city! It was called Strawberry Swing, and it was a piping 100 degrees outside! Most vendors were outside in the heat, but everyone seemed happy to be there, regardless of the weather. I found several shops of interest and made a couple of purchases, too! So, today is a tribute to handmade. Below, you'll find a few of my new favorite finds. Check out their shops, and support handmade arts!

Bought an all gray rain cloud cross-stitch from GraceandLight - see more at www.graceandlight.etsy.com

Bought one of these in moss green from MissBettyLou - see more at www.missbettylou.etsy.com


Here are some others I didn't purchase from, but would have if I had more money!!

Loved these pillows!  See more at www.casabeandesign.etsy.com

    Sounds like you had a great show this weekend! I was so amazed at the way vendors supported each other at the show I was at over the weekend. I am glad that it appears to be widespread.
