This weekend I'll be attending a craft fair for the first time from the opposite side, as a visitor, not a vendor. I'm traveling to Portland, OR, my old stomping ground, for Little Winter, hosted by Abby Powell Thompson from Abby Try Again + Chelsea Fuss from Frolic. There are only 20 vendors, all of which I'm excited to meet + see their work in person, but these particular artists will be sure + grab my attention first:

Gorgeous paintings // Amanda Blake
Yummy handwoven scarves // Secret Pocket
Pretty frocks + knitted socks // Garment House
Incredible tote bags // Forestbound
Lovely ties + kitty illustrations // Fieldguided
Colorful photography // Abby Try Again


When // November 6th, 11 - 6 + November 7th, 11 - 5
Where // The Cleaners at The Ace Hotel, Portland, OR

If you're in or around Portland this weekend, be sure to check out the show. It should be aces! For more info about the event, visit the Little Winter Blog for vendor spotlights + Portland destinations not to be missed. See you there!

Behind the scenes preparation for a Starlette Crown wholesale order.

October 26th // 2010

Elsie from A Beautiful Mess + I have a magical giveaway we'd like to present. Up for grabs is not only a Giant Dwarf Starlette Crown, but also a one year subscription to BUST Magazine. Why those amazing things together in one giveaway you ask? Well, Elsie is featured in the October/November issue of BUST wearing a cute little outfit topped off with nothing other than her Starlette Crown. I thought it was fitting that we'd team up + celebrate by offering our dear readers a chance to win both. Exciting, I know!

Now hop on over to Elsie's blog + leave a comment, along with your favorite thing to collect, for a chance to win. The opportunity ends this Sunday, October 31st, so don't miss out!

Good luck + happy Halloween!

xo,
Sue + Elsie
