As some of you know I wear many hats, I not only run a
vintage shop but also run a handmade business.
I’ll be honest handmade does so much better when the temperatures start
to cool down, but the girls at the Honey Craft are some of my favs and their
June Market fit into my schedule so off I went.
Honey Craft is held the first Saturday of every month in
Woodstock, Woodstock in itself is super stinking cute with the town square and
all. Watch the movie Groundhog Day it was
filmed in Woodstock and you’ll see what I mean.
I debuted a new upcycled creation while there the tea cup
bird feeder, and people thought it was the coolest thing. I also debuted a new design of handbag I’m
currently working on that sold before the sale even started, so I didn’t get a
good picture of it. Maybe my customer
will read this and send a pic over, hint hint hint.
I also met some great new women, I met Katie from Elefawn Design,
made a purchase from Debbie at Porchlight Collages cause
they were too cool to pass up,
talked Katie from Stiched for Ewe into starting
an Etsy shop, watched Jennie from Jennie Anne Dreams have her first sale and
had lots of fun in general.
I also of course thrifted my way back home, who knew
Northern Illinois thrift stores were so jam packed, I may have rode home with a
box of treasure on my lap as I found so many goodies!
If you are in the Woodstock area around the first Saturday
of the month I encourage you to stop by and say Hello to all of the talented
artists.
I won’t be doing any more Handmade shows til Fall so I can
get my new purse design perfected.
Over-N-Out
