Last Sunday, in addition to
finding a Paper Source within an easy drive from my home, I discovered a lovely place called
the Clover Market.
The organizers describe the market as "an upscale vintage outdoor market...featuring original art, antiques, vintage jewelry & clothing, artisan crafts, and handmade items." In other words, my ideal browsing destination!
The vendors all take real care when setting up their booths, in order to make their vignettes interesting and their merchandise accessible to their customers.
Half the fun was checking out how items, as well as prices and other information, were displayed.
One of my first stops was to visit my friend Jen, who in addition to being a full-time high school English teacher, mother of two boys under three, writer of
two blogs, and owner of an Etsy store called
Babee Crafts, finds time to represent her hand-crafted baby items at markets, shows, and bazaars!
(If I ever find out her secret for juggling all these roles--and doing them all so WELL--while maintaining an admirable level of good humor and a relaxed vibe, I will definitely share it with you!)
Some of the vendors included:
--antiques and vintage items for the home--
--architectural salvage--
--purses and other fabric items--
--jewelry--
--paper crafts--
Thanks for re-posting, Jen!
