green goods

My favorite part of craft shows is meeting fellow crafters.  It's so inspiring to be surround by all that creativity.  My second favorite part is trading goods.  I received some lovely items in exchange for stationery last weekend.

super rad pdx craft show

The Super Rad PDX Craft Show was a blast!  The event took place at the gorgeous Portland Nursery. 
 I was happy with how my display turned out.
This little mason jar was perfect for my 1" notebooks.

goodies in the mail

I recently read about The Paper Nickel on an adorable blog, I go by Katie. I couldn't resist ordering a few sets of their vintage stamps. These lil guys are going to look amazing on my envelopes. I promise to post pictures before I send them off.
Speaking of cute small things...my mini moo cards arrived in the mail this week. I'm really happy with how they turned out.

I'm looking forward to the Super Rad PDX Craft Show tomorrow afternoon.
Stop by for free beer and a chat!

This afternoon I stumbled across PearsonMaron in this Etsy treasury
Their kitsch ceramic figures immediately caught my eye.

street fair report


I had a great time at the Mississippi Street Fair yesterday. 
I was able to snap a few shots in between customers.  

My handmade banner in action!
 I was afraid I wouldn't have enough inventory to fill two tables, but I had more than enough.
 Little kids are really drawn to my buttons and mini notebooks.  Apparently, I have an additional target audience...age 2 to 7.
I couldn't have participated in this event without the help of my amazing assistant aka Mom.  She arranged stationery, chatted with customers and joined me in people watching.  She had no problem giving me an hour break to go watch my dear friends, Drew Grow and the Pastor's Wives, perform on the courtyard stage.

summer fun


I'm psyched about taking part in the Mississippi Street Fair this Saturday.
 
Stop by my booth and say hello!
