With Spring come the arts and craft fairs. I enjoy walking around and admiring people’s creativity.
This year I found a new fair, Jackalope Art Fair, each fair has a personality of it’s own, every once in a while there is overlap of artists, but in general, going to a different fair means seeing different artists.A Sauce company even had a jackalope as their mascot.Someone else was selling scary looking horned hybrids. I’m seeing that the mounted trophy is popular.
Amirigurumi made it’s appearance.Along with these cute fellows.Using old posters of Los Angeles as design elements. An orange label with the Biltmore Hotel and the old Philharmonic Auditorium and the the Title Guarantee building on Pershing Square.Someone was selling handmade baby quilts. I always admire people who sell quilts, I don’t care how small or simple it is. A quilt is a lot of work.Succulents were in everywhere. Sometimes real……sometimes made of fabric…… and even felted. The dirt itself is felted, hence the shot glasses.Someone has taken raffia to a whole new level.This bird really grabbed my attention.As did the glass by Sirens Calling, simple bright fused glass.
The one booth where I did make a purchase. Driftwood and glass, what could be better in my garden.Next week there is a local craft fair, one I can simply walk to from my house. I’ll be sharing more impressions from that one as well.
