Fair finds

I'm not allowed to buy any more mugs. There's no room for more. Spending 30 bucks on a mug that I love from a craft fair is not allowed. But what if I were to break a few mugs. Accidentally. Then I might as well replace them with one that I love, right?

So here's my new strategy - at craft fairs, of which I frequent, if I love a shop I will take their card and add their website to a new folder on my Bookmark bar, the "ShopFair" folder. 

Behold: 

Thanks, Amazon, but I can handle my global wishlist by myself, thankyouverymuch.

This way I can remember the places that make my heart sing. When my nephew's birthday comes around I can remember those superhero masks. I can buy matching earrings to go with my birch bracelet. I can remember those rad leggings for friend X. When the time comes to buy myself or my loved ones something crafty, there's a starting point less intimidating than the entirety of Etsy. And if someone asks me what I might want for a gift, I can provide them with links of vetted shops, guaranteed to carry things I love that they can personally select from. Genius, I know.

Now if I could only find that damn business card from that brilliant potter at the Penn State Arts Fest. I guess it will take a little longer to perfect my new protocol :(
