One of my favorite events of the season was last weekend.
Bizarre Bazaar. The 30th anniversary actually. The woman who designed the t-shirt was telling me how there was an artist who had chicken foot ornaments at the very first event. Oh dear.
Fear not. I have NONE of those to show you. But how about a pet tag necklace, or some smiling cat blocks, or a super cool basket made by Cheryl from Eudora.
Pottery is always a good choice. For some reason I never think I have enough.
If you are looking for a gift for the person who has everything, may I suggest a painted hand?
This stylish woman simply needed to have her photo taken.
This retired librarian talked to me about her intricate ornaments and how she makes them all year long, except for a few months when she concentrates on her other artistic ventures.
Its not often that you get to enjoy the sound of a good accordion. It was perfect. Music makes every event better.
Who had a spinning top toy as a child? We did!
Above is one of my favorite artists. I have purchased pins and tie-dyed socks from her over the years. The sculptured bowls were new this year.
For originality how about a necklace fashioned from a shaving brush, and who doesn't need a cute pin?
Oh I could go on, but I will end with a few of my purchases
I had to draw the line somewhere. I needed to reserve some funds for the holiday farmers market which is coming up in a few weeks.
Wonderful, wish I could have tagged along, I probably would have come home with that top!

I would have bought at least one (if not more) of those large paper flowers!

The lady who did the chicken feet is a classmate of mine and she told me that it take a long time to make them. Will have to talk to her about it when I see her next.
