There will be about thirty local artists, designers and crafters showing off their gorgeous wares, and the Monster Women and the Ian Fays are playing. It's going to be a great time, plus it's a wonderful opportunity to support local people making beautiful and uncommon goods instead of buying factory made crap from China.
So come to the plaza between 10 and 4 and visit me. I'll be the one in the Carnival Girl Designs booth smiling uncomfortably and looking like I need a drink because I'm an absolutely horrible salesperson.
Here's some of my latest adornments:
Bird pendants
Vintage sheet music pendants
Mexican loteria card pendants
Strange pictures from vintage dictionary pendants
and of course risque' French postcard pendants
Hope to see you there!

Can't make it to Arcata but let me know if you want to trade something for 'fox - y'
I'm not in Old Town anymore for work. I miss running into you, I miss the hot coffee shop guy, I miss lurking in Accident Gallery when I need ten minutes to myself.
But I will not miss the craft extravaganza in Arcata tomorrow. Will not.
Headwrapper,
Could bartering include non-material goods...like maybe something involving the headmaster's paddle?
Oh dear; I think the champipple is getting to me. Regardless, foxy is yours.

Anonymous,
I also miss how you used to stalk me on the streets of Old Town. It would be fabulous to see you!

Oh, I love the octopus and the sexy ones! But I'm determined to get to the river tomorrow (love the fog normally, but something about wearing a hoodie and beanie the entire month of July eventually gets to me) – do you sell your pretties anywhere in town?
Dang, I wish my daughter were visiting from Portland. She would be all over this like glitter on a glue gun. What a great idea for an event.

Perfect opportunity to send her a gift, Eko.
I will exchange three units of paddle service for one fox-y enchained, but only if you'll promise to say, "oh dear, oh dear, oh dear!"
Psssst, bring your own drinkies along. It will make the whole uncomfortable part that much more bearable! Umm, not that I'd do that or anything. Someone told me.
This summer of fog is about to kill me, Jen, and you would think I'd be used to it since I was born here. Hope you got to the river. The jewelry is at the Accident Gallery, Suki Boutique and soon to be in Shipwreck in Eureka and at Essence of Humboldt in Arcata.
The headmaster of headwrapping school always makes me blush and snort simultaneously. Oh dear.
Thanks for the tip, crossgirl!
