Since moving back to Portland, OR I've made a new friend, Mimi. She's one of the craftiest people I know, so I'm sure you can see why I have so much fun with her. But more important than being artsy-fun, she's a wonderful person--genuine, down to earth, and lovely as can be.
And I have good news for you! She is participating in a juried craft show, The Handcrafted Holiday Market, this Saturday (November 17th) at Marylhurst University's Library from 10 am -5 pm. (The University is located between Lake Oswego and West Linn at 17600 Pacific Highway (Hwy. 43).)
I can't wait to go!
I was at her house yesterday and snapped some photos of her product line. Here is a sampling of what she'll be offering at the show...
(Rings and Bobbypins--around $5)
(Gift card/business card holders--so cute!)
(Tissue holders)
(The fabric used in this necklace design is from an old quilt... so clever!)
(As you can see, there will be many necklaes to choose from, ranging $14 and up.)
(And more necklaces... love those buttons!)
(Earrings)
("Wreath Garlands" will be available along with a couple "book" wreaths--so lovely!)
(I'm in love with these bookmarks! {approx. $6} )
And check this out--one of my readers (yes, that's you!!) will be winning one of her NOEL wreath garlands AND a ring!
Classy and pretty. Who wants it??
To enter this giveaway, please leave a comment on this post telling us what your favorite item is that she is selling. Easy peasy. A random winner will be announced this Saturday, the 17th, so hurry up and leave a comment--you don't have much time! The giveaway has ended... thanks to all of those who entered!
And if you're a Portlander, I hope you can make it to the show! Maybe we'll run in to each other while there. :)
xo,
Pamela
I love the book wreaths with the garland!!!

I absolutely adore every detail of the ring. And my favorite photo, though I love them all, is the ninth one down. The jeweled portion of the necklaces hanging down. I so love the image with the dress form too. Fantastic layout of images! So fun!
