Handmade Shopping Showcase

You're Invited:
HANDMADE SHOPPING SHOWCASE
Craft Show
Sunday, May 5
The Randleman House
245 Pennsylvania, Carlisle
 
10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Free Admission
 
Handmade items by area artists & crafters:
jewelry, original art, journals, accessories, & more. 
 
Presented by Papercake Creations & Groovy Planet Fair Trade.
 
 
This Sunday is "my" craft show.  I've been toying with the idea of putting on a small indie show for a while now.  And then I just thought, WHY NOT?  Heck, everybody else is doing it....so why not me? 
 
My friend Staci of Groovy Planet Fair Trade is helping me with this and we have assembled an awesome group of  makers/vendors who will bring their beautiful handmade items to my hometown of Carlisle, Iowa this Sunday.  We are setting up shop at a truly unique and wonderful venue: The Randleman House, which is owned & operated by the Carlisle Area Historical Society, who has done the most amazing job of restoring this house.  The house itself is something to see.  The house with awesome handmade stuff for sale inside?  What more could you ask for?  I mean, really? 
 
We would love to see you there.  We like to show people the stuff we make.  We like to talk about what we do and how we do it.  We like it when people buy our stuff, of course.  It helps us buy groceries and more craft supplies and stuff.  That's what this shopping local thing is all about.  It helps everybody, really.   
 
So, come on out this Sunday.  We would love to see you!  It is also a great chance to find a neat Mother's Day or graduation gift, of course.  Something the recipient will actually like.
