The Little Craft Show

  Last year I was one of the few fortunate artists that got accepted to The Little Craft Show in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
When they said "little" they sure weren't joking. I think there were around 20 artists packed in a tiny space. It was amazing! The lovely ladies that organized the event, did such a great job! I think we were all amazed by the amount of people that walked through the door that day.
My jewelry was featured on the cover of a local newspaper, representing the show. I was so proud. :)
The girls decorated with Christmas lights and it looked so good! This is a pic of my "little" set up.
 Well, fast forward to this year... they have stepped up the game a bit. The event will now take place at the Fayetteville Town Center on the Square in beautiful downtown Fayetteville, Arkansas. They have accepted about 50 vendors this year and I am so proud to be one. In fact, not only am I a vendor, I am also a sponsor of the show. I cannot brag on the ladies that make this show a possibility enough! It's what Fayetteville/Northwest Arkansas needed!
 So, mark your calendars for December 1st and plan to attend The Little Craft Show.
