It Was A Busy Weekend...

 well at least for us it was.

Saturday, the hubs and I had the entire day to ourselves...

what did we do you ask?

Well, we went to a craft show in Chester, New Jersey, of course.

Chester hosts craft shows twice per year, I never miss their shows, they are the best.

These beautiful, hand painted gourds and wood items were designed and painted by

Debra J. Allen

She can be found on Facebook at "worthywood1991" if you would like to view some of her items.

She is very talented, these painting were so unique...the gourds were my favorites.

This was also designed and painted by Debra J. Allen

Jersey Driftwood Art By Helma

This Artwork was incredible...all of these pieces are handcrafted with Driftwood collected at the 

Jersey Shore

Helma was another lovely woman, kind and expressive, I really enjoyed her art.

She has a website here.

My next 4 images are pictures of photographs - presented on canvas - by

Alex Spielman

His Artwork and website can be found here.

If you are a bird lover like I am, you will marvel at his work.

Beautiful, colorful headbands.

I always ask before I take pictures.

Most crafters do not want their items photographed.

The next few things I can't identify the craft person, but I did get permission to take these pictures.

There were a ton of food vendors and food options.

What items could I just not resist, you ask...these are the goodies that came home in my sack.

All of this...

The purple bag is felted, I purchased it at the first booth I entered,

for all of my knitting "do-dads".

I did not "neeeeed" this but I really wanted it!

Isn't it gorgeous?

These pretzels with this amazing

- Bacon Jam -

there are no words to describe the incredible taste of this maple, onion, bacon jam, 

There were some nuts purchased too, 

- Cinnamon Candied Cashews -

but the hubs ate almost all of them.

You can see what's left of them in the first picture, there are only a "few".

- This Spoon "Choose To Grow" -

for my wildflower garden and the 2 wood stickers for my junk journal.

I purchased these clay ornaments...one for me "KC Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes #15",

and one for my nieces husband, he likes those "Green Bay Packers".

I did not take a picture at this booth...they had so many different occupations and sports.

Their website can be found here.

The weather was perfect and we had such an amazing day!

I spent Sunday in the garden briefly and then visited with my mom.
