Bust Magazines Craftacular

Today I went downtown to Bust Magazines Craftacular Craft Fair.  Upon first entering the venue I wasn’t too pleased to find you had to pay to get in. It had been noted no where on any of the advertisements or website and all I could see was a line of people shoving dollars into a box. Luckily it was only 1 dollar – but please- if there is a cover you must disclose that fact! Anyway, the venue was quite large and there were 200+ vendors. I got there around noon and it was crowded.  I picked up a few items that I couldn’t resist. I got a necklace from junxtaposition – an old typewriter key (my names’s first letter) on a simple ball chain. The other lovely item I purchased was from Little Flower Designs. Little Flower Designs is handmade pottery. It’s really amazing, though on the expensive side. The tea cup I picked up is pictured below and I simply love it.

Two other vendors I liked were Sarah Apple - block prints on shirts and such. I was going to get a nesting doll tee-shirt, but they were out of my size and Squidfire – more shirts with some really great and some not so great prints. I liked there outterspace and deep sea motifs.
