22 May

As predicted, the Renegade Craft Fair was AWESOME. This thing was enormous, taking up the entire area inside of the Palmer Events Center.

Renegade Craft Fair Austin

21 May

It’s that time again! The Renegade Craft Fair is in Austin this weekend and I am heading there in about an hour’s time.

I seriously cannot wait. I love me a good craft fair, yes I do! It’s so exciting to meet the people behind the craft, you know? There’s something extra special about buying a one-of-a-kind necklace (or art print or dress or journal or greeting card) and getting to share a few words with the talented person who made it.

If you’re in Austin this weekend, go to the Palmers Event Center and check it out for yourself!
