Weekend festivals

My husband loves me!  He suggested we go to TWO different art/craft festivals this weekend.  It helped that they were in neighboring towns.  :)

My eyes landed on so many wonderful pieces of art.  I want to tell you about two booths that I particularly enjoyed.

The first was also enjoyed by my husband.  I think we would have walked away with a piece if we had a place to put it right now.  But we're living in a rental home with plaster wall.  We're not hanging anything.  My husband and I like photography and Lake Michigan, so Steven Huyser-Honig's booth caught the attention of both of us.  He does such fabulous work!  I encourage you to check out his site.  I'm not able to post any pics from it.  Trust me, it will be worth the click!

The other booth caught my eye because of the way the items were displayed.  Then I realized Tracie (Radical Recycks) was a woman who upcycles/recycles!  Woohoo!  And she's also from Michigan!
The first pic I'm posting from her site is her display set-up.  Way to go Tracie!  I love it!  The second is her t-shirt flower barrettes.  Enjoy!

  1. Hi, Carrie! Coming over from Thrift Diving! Congrats on your blog. I take it, it's new? I love making things new again, too. It's so much fun, and cheaper too. The best part is that if you mess it up, it's easy to start right on over. :)
