One of a Kind Show Chicago

I'm halfway through the One of a Kind Show in Chicago. It's great being in the special Etsy section featuring 30 other Etsians plus a DIY area--a really nice group of talented people, plus the area is a lot more spacious than most of the Merchandise Mart allotments, since our booths are half the depth as a normal booth and without side partitions. My corner booth (#2015) is decked out with a mini winter wonderland. Come say hi if you're in the Chicago area! (Here's my picketing Rabbi who is up on the local politics.) weekend hours: Saturday, December 4 10 am – 7 pm and Sunday, December 5 10 am – 5 pm.

Hellooooooooo Chicago!

I haven't quite finished the booth setup yet, but promise to take pictures. The plan: I'm creating an eight foot long winter wonderland scene, complete with leafy trees, reindeer, snow people, penguins galore, picketing Santas and Rabbis, and other martini-imbibing beasts.


Are you nearby? Will you come say hi? I am in booth 8-2015 and can't wait to meet some of my old and new customers! Show starts at noon today and runs through Sunday afternoon. See you there! Click here for more info. I'm holding court in the Etsy Pavillion where they have some excellent props to fancy up their section like a white faux polar bear rug, a freestanding cardboard fireplace, etc. They also will have all kinds of fun crafty things to do and every purchase you make at one of the 30 booths in this section gives you a chance to win a gift certificate and other amazing raffle prizes!
