PAST EVENTS - 2008

 

December 19th, 2008

The CityCraft Handmade Holiday Happy Hour Market at Navarra was a pretty cool venue, although it was way too dark to see anything. Martinis definitely help people feel more comfortable about spending money. The musical guests were really talented - listening to live music while you stand at a table for hours makes the night a lot more enjoyable.

The "I Made it!" sale was awesome! The Union Project is a great venue for a craft sale. There were so many wonderful local vendors selling creative items - it was really inspiring. The Union Project has a little cafe that makes tasty coffee and delicious black bean quesadillas. I sold lots of stuff, spreading my creations across the city!

Sunday, September 21st and 28th, 2008 - 12 pm to 5 pm

The two Sundae Markets in Schenley Plaza, Pittsburgh, PA, went really well. Besides a few unexpected gusts of wind knocking my display down a few times, everything went great. I sold lots of stuff, met new people, and overall really enjoyed my time there. A huge variety of vendors made the market fun to explore, and they gave all the shoppers free muslin shopping bags with that awesome octopus logo printed on it.

I'm looking forward to being a part of this event again, whenever it travels back to Pittsburgh.
