Where to Find the Makers This Weekend

A sunny Sunday in early autumn is one of the magical delights that 

we are blessed with this time of year.

Take a ride on over to Bethel Woods to the Harvest Festival and visit with

our super busy Hester of:

 

Hesters Studio

 

Garlic Keeper 

Just in time for garlic season she has created this lovely keeper.

Just one of the many beautiful ceramics to choose from at Hester's booth.

Also our Erica will be showing her gorgeous line of postage stamp jewelry at the:

Ridgewood Fall Craft and Art Street Fair

Curious Vintage Shoppe

I think that this will look lovely with a cozy fall sweater.
