The Crafts at Ocean Grove

We go to a lot of the local Craft Shows,
I really enjoy them.
I love being outdoors, seeing all the wonderful items people make,
and chatting up a storm.
I don't usually buy anything but I talk to everyone.
The hubs is usually 2 booths ahead of me, pretending like he doesn't know me.
We went to a show in Ocean Grove on Saturday,
and I had some really great purchases for a change.
I'll share them at the end.








This band plays here every year.


Ocean Grove is a very religious community, this is their Great Auditorium


This is the Youth Temple


I purchased 2 new anklet bracelets...


These beautiful "Cards That Grow"
After enjoying the card, you soak it in water and plant it,
it will grow some pretty wild flowers.
They were $ 3.75 each and I thought that was a real bargain.


I found these adorable flip-flop's with a little bling...


and this bird bath made with vintage pieces of glass.

It was a beautiful day and I am thrilled with my crafty finds!

  1. You had seen many new collections of items. I too love to do window shopping to know about new things which has come to the market. If it is really useful then will go for buying it:)

  3. First off...I love the birdbath. I have seen this done before but that yellow bowl sets this one off so nicely. BLING....my fav thing! Love the flops, only I have to buy ones that some sort of arch to them these days and in the spring and summer I never step out of the house without my ankle bracelets on! You go girl...you are styling for the summer months to come.

  4. Oh wow - I love craft shows and you got some lovely things! I used to like walking around and looking at everything. However, if I took my sis in law, we would be there for hours. She has to look at EVERY.SINGLE.THING for an incredibly long time. She and I are going shopping this afternoon, and I know we'll be gone hours on end. But, I love her. LOL

  8. Wow you did find some great finds this year didn't you :) Love the cards that you can plant, you will have to keep us up to date on the progress once you plant them :) Love the new flip flops, I miss being able to wear them, with my feet I have to keep them in the orthotics or I am in way too much pain. That bird bath is just beautiful, that is going to attract the birds :) I see some pictures in our future ;)
