Upcoming Craft Shows

I've been feverishly working every moment I'm not at my "real job" to make lots of fun things for the three craft shows I've got coming up.

First is St. Gen's Gift Expo which will be on Saturday, November 14th from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The address is: 6995 Centerville Road in Centerville, MN. The first 50 people through the door get gift bags filled with lots of fun goodies... and I'm working on something fun to put in there, too, so get there early and you'll see my contribution. There will be a silent auction for baskets donated from each vendor. I'm still trying to decide on something to donate, but I want it to be awesome so my basket gets the highest bids! : )

Next is Thursday, November 19th from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Burnsville High School's Senior Campus. I'll only be able to be there till noon, but my wonderful mother will be filling in for me after I have to leave, so my stuff will be there the whole time. That one will have lots of fun crafts and food items along with lunch that can be purchased from the Senior Center.

Then, lastly, I've got something that should be really fun at the Curves in Minneapolis (I have to figure out which location this is going to be, as there are a few that are in Minneapolis and I can't remember if it's Southeast or Southwest.) Anyway, that is from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, December 5th, so that should also be lots of fun.

And I'm also super excited that I'll be at all three of these with my amazingly talented cousin Sara who makes delicious chocolate confections and treats. Her website is illbedippedinchocolate.com and everything she makes is wonderful! : )

So in between making things for sales, I'm trying to fit in all my Christmas gift knitting (which will be pared down from years past, unfortunately!) It's a good thing I have an understanding husband who doesn't mind (too much) if I spend a lot of time knitting... and the cats LOVE when I knit because it means there's a lap available for long periods of time!
