The latest finished pieces that will be heading out with me this coming Saturday
to the Weston Potato Festival in Historic Weston, Oregon. The doors open at 9:00a.m. for vendor sales and activities.  A potato featured lunch will be available downstairs at the Memorial Hall, along with the usual book sale.  Being a community event of long standing this is one of the nicer events to help kick off the Bazaar season.  Bingo throughout the day, a raffle to help raise money for the school,etc, help round out day long activity which ends at 4:00p.m.  Hope to say "hello" there!  
Next up will be the Annual, "Mary Stewart Christmas Bazaar" Friday, November 9th & Saturday, November 10th from 9:00a.m. until 4:00p.m. in Milton-Freewater, Oregon at the Community Center on 5th Street.  A variety of handcrafted only, artisans and crafters offer their wares for holiday, or any day, giving or keeping!!  Lunch will be available so no need to hurry away.  
The final show for myself this year, will be Saturday, December 8th, from 9:00a.m. until 4:00p.m. The 2018 Holiday Market at the Walla Walla, Washington Fairgrounds (Community Building) is another venue for "Handmade Only."  Personally, these are the only type shows that I wish to attend.....let's not mix unique with commercial is my own mantra. 
 That's why the "Easy Access Networking" page offers only links to those vendors that work hard to create something unique and individual!!  There are soooo many wonderful artisans working from their studio.....or their kitchen table.....
to fulfill their passion for creating!  It really is worthwhile to visit these sites to see the variety of offerings and perhaps lend a bit of support to their endeavors and fulfillment to a dream.   In creating the page, I continue to find some amazing items and hope to help support some of them when I consider shopping.  Please re-visit the "easy access networking" page often.  Not only do I find new friends to add, but as they create remember, they, too, add to their inventory!
On that note....after a bit of research it seems possible to visit my own online store directly----no fuss, no muss by simply entering the following link:
Suncatcherjo        No need to go through the Website!!  Actually, am thinking on removing that site and sticking to original thought of Blog=Store!!  
Have you heard of "overthinking?"  Seems that tendency has set up a room in my brain!  Moving "overthinking" out and moving "rethinking" in!
Be well and enjoy......
