Craft Fair Friends! – Artist Spotlights

March 10, 2011

I participated in the Feburary Events of  I Made it! Market….and was happy to meet some fellow crafty friends who, once i saw their stuff, I knew i wanted to share with you! 
I’m so excited to introduce these talented women to you!! 
I really feel it is important for us to support and encourage each other as women, especially in ventures like this. I have a handful of women i met who i’ll be sharing in another post as well.
They all did a GREAT job of displaying their items.. don’t you think??
If you have an Etsy shop, you can get inspiration from these tables of how to set 
up your own craft fair table displays!

I had met Krystal at the first I Made it! Market I went to as a shopper(back in December).
 And then the next one we ended up being across from each other! 
We immediately clicked and started brainstorming ideas of how we could team up together on projects! She is working with me on the Baby Shower I am throwing 
in April and I can’t wait to show you the fabulous ideas we’ve worked up together!

i’m a sucker for cupcakes..even in bath bomb form. ;)

Having two girls..this booth immediately caught my eye! 
Not only was every item sweet but so were the ladies i met working the table! Absolutely adorable. They are craft show veterans and gave me the inside scoop on the whole deal. They even invited me to be a part of a show that they do from their home which i’m very excited about. Looking at these pictures i’m even more impressed with their quality of work! You should stop by their shop and oo and ahh at the cuteness. hehe.
Their shop includes Tutu’s, nap time mats, ballet bags, baby bibs and toddler aprons, beach & diaper bags, custom embroidery, bridal jewelry…and more!

You know when you meet someone and you just immediately can’t stop chatting!? That’s how I felt with her! She is so warm and kind and her table……..delicious. 
This talented Mama creates these unique treats..perfect for a special occasion!

my favorite….chocolate dipped oreos. A-mazing.

There were so many amazing vendors but these were some of the ones that caught my eye. Whether you are local in Pittsburgh or not, you should check them out!
More Artist Spotlights to come! 
You will love them too. :)
thanks again to Christine for tagging along with me that 
day and capturing these gorgeous images.

Thanks so much for sharing these, I am gearing up for my first round of home showings and craft fairs this year and the timing of your post is PERFECT for me. I’ll be designing my own displays soon and appreciate the ideas you have shared.

    I will definitely check these ladies out, so talented! As are you ;) I am local in the burgh too so hopefully I’ll be able to see you all at a fair soon!
