On Saturday, my mom (AKA "Prinny") and I loaded up the car and headed downtown to two craft fairs/ markets: one at the Chattanooga Trade & Convention Center and one at the First TN Pavilion. (Events like this are in Chattanooga all the time- it's a great way to find handmade items from the talented people who call Chattanooga home.)
There were so many fun things! Lots of crafters and craftsmen selling their wares: leather-working, jewelry, locally-made foods, monogrammed items, art, screen-printed shirts...
It. Was. Awesome.
I found a few Christmas presents for Grant (no pictures, obviously), some burlap ribbon ($2/roll!!!) for future wreath-making/crafting...
The pattern is called "Magnolia." I love it.
Some of my favorite pieces were items that had been engraved with a monogram by the original owner years ago. I can just picture a cute, little 1950's housewife carefully picking a script font to engrave her new last initial onto her brand new silver wedding china.
You can find craft festivals near you here.
Happy hunting!
