That is me posing in front of a giant Martha Stewart Living magazine cover at the Martha Stewart Holiday Craft Sale on Saturday. It was really rainy and cold on Saturday, but my friend, Lisa, and I made it to both the Holiday Handmade Cavalcade and the Martha show. I have written a review of the two shows for CraftCritique.com that should be published soon, so i don’t want to spoil the surprise… but basically I loved the Handmade Cavalcade even though it was super-crowded, and the Martha show was totally intimidating and pricey. It was really fun to see inside the Martha Stewart office building, though!
I had intended to go to the Bust Craftacular sale on Sunday, but I was worn out from battling crowds the day before and opted to stay home and relax instead.
On Monday, I went to Etsy Labs Craft Night for the first time in over a month. Even though I had a ton of work to do on Monday, I am glad I took a break and went. We made needle-felted ornaments with Nguyen Le from KnitKnit. It was a lot of fun and I like my little ornaments. I think I may go buy myself a needle-felting needle and some wool to make more little things! (The photo below was taking with my iPhone. I’m sorry for the low quality.)
Tonight, Travis and I are heading to Spacecraft in Williamsburg, Brooklyn for the Hello Craft One of a Kind pre-show party. I haven’t been to Spacecraft, but have been wanting to check it out! Should be fun!

So… we didn’t end up going to the Hello Craft pre-show party because we had to come home to work on the blog emergency.
