We loved the Etsy show at the Pipe shop today! Fabulous artists and new innovative food! Beautifully organized and a very festive vibe. You must be so proud.

I did want to tell you how much I enjoyed the Paper, Patch & Pin show at Heritage Hall. I was so impressed with the variety of products from the vendors, and loved that it was focused on paper/stationery, rubber stamps, pins & patches!
