Holiday ICE Spectacular in Atlanta

As I've already posted on here, holiday shows are in full swing!

Seriously, I LOVE doing these shows - I get outta town, meet new people and sometimes I buy myself and my family and friends handmade gifts for the holidays - it's a win/win situation here folks.

The same can be for you too, if you shop at the ICE Holiday show or really any local craft show. 


I hope to see you there or at another handmade craft market.

Holiday Show schedule

This month I'm gearing up for all the shows next month, it's going to be nonstop!

Here's a sweet preview of them in a fancy postcard design I just put together.



These will be going out in the mail soon - once I get them ordered!

As always, thank you for reading.

Eide magazine feature interview

Before I left for Atlanta for the ICE (Indie Craft Experience) show I contacted Eide magazine.  As you may recall two years ago they did featured my jewelry on the cover of their magazine (ummm huge deal!) and I really wanted to meet some of their staff and invite them to the show.

Alas, they couldn't attend however the Eide team was so gracious to interview me about the show and supporting locally sourced handmade goods.  Eide's correspondent intern, Hannah Lenore Gray, had some great questions.  My main point was to stress how much local economy benefits from supporting handmade.  It boils down to putting money in your neighbors pocket, which in turn supports your local coffee shop to your neighborhood restaurant.  It all comes full circle.



Still can't get over this rad image and The Hunted double owl talons on the cover!

The summer shows are coming!

Next week it'll be June and I think it'll really hit that it's summer.  And next weekend I'll be in Atlanta for the Indie Craft Experience (ICE) at the Georgia Freight Depot.

I'm super excited, I am really enjoying doing shows.  I get to meet new people and travel while promoting and selling my jewelry.   And this time I'll be traveling with another local handmade business,  The Lucky Owl Shop.  It's going to make the trip that much better, as over the past year I've discovered that it's really hard to set up shows by yourself.  Having a partner to talk with, take breaks and just ease the burden of carrying tables and chairs makes it much easier!

We will be at booth #39 for those of you that may be in the Atlanta area or want to share this with your fellow Atlanta friends!

Here are some of the print/online materials for the show. 


Isn't this a pretty postcard? I love the vintage feel of it.
A handy map to help guide you to the show!

Indie Craft Experience (ICE) Atlanta

Summer show season is getting closer and I'm pretty excited about the new cities I'll be traveling to, such as Philadelphia (Art Star Show) and Atlanta.  I got news Sunday night that I was accepted, along with the Lucky Owl Shop to the Indie Craft Experience (ICE) in Atlanta on June 6-7th!

I haven't been to Atlanta in over 7 years, last time I went was for the True Colors tour for the Human Rights Campaign.  And I didn't really get to experience much of Atlanta because I was there for work - and of course going again for work but still I'll be a bit more flexible with my schedule so I can squeeze in some sight seeing.   I'm also looking forward to sharing a booth with fellow maker Amanda Adkins, of the Lucky Owl Shop.  It'll be less stressful and financially softer to share the experience of working within the same booth with Amanda.  Plus our work compliments each other so well!


If you're in the area that time, I hope to see you there! And thank you for reading.
