I attended the Swedish Christmas Fair in San Francisco for 7 years, while my kids could help me sell and help people, mostly kids, who wanted to try needlefelting. Now, my kids are in college and I started doing my bigger wall hangings.
My Fourth SWEA Christmas Fair, 2012:
My 3rd Julmarknad (Christmas Fair). This year I had a table for people to sit down and make something! Lots of people, young and old, sat down and made a mushroom, wreath or pepparkaka (gingerbread).

Hi!
If you come to my site after the Maker Faire, I must say I had
so much fun, and it was so very nice to meet all the people who
said nice things about my creatures!
It is such a treat to see someone find something they seem to
connect to. Thanks to the couple who came back for my big ticket
octopus, to the lovely girl who fell for the duckling (but really also
like the ferret), the extremely nice people who bought the flying
fox and the little girl who liked the chick & egg, the man who told me about his tame raven and all the people who stopped and chatted (even if you did not buy anything).
I had such a good time, even if I did not get to see the actual faire.
I hope to be back next year.
I did sell lots of stuff and need to do a bit of inventory. I will put more
stuff up on Etsy soon. Drop a line if you want to inquire about something or just say hi.
