2009 Craft Shows

I have two shows lined up this month;

This coming Saturday and Sunday, November 14–15, 2009, the 21st Annual Festive Craft Market at the NSAC, Bible Hill, Nova Scotia.

The following weekend, Friday - Sunday, November 20-22, 2009, the Christmas Craft Expo at Acadia University in Wolfville. I have a few customer appreciation tickets to give away, to save you the $5.00 admission fee. If you would like one or two, drop me an email with your mailing address and I will pop them in the post.

Some new weedpots

The farmers market season has already begun. Most weekends will find me at Antigonish on Saturday morning between 8am and noon. I just started a twitter feed, so you can get more uptodate information of my whereabouts at twitter.com/SeafoamWoodturn.

This week I made some weedpots. Some are quite unusual, having natural edges and the like. The large ones are Black Ash, the ones with the bark still on are Striped Maple.

Market schedule

Here is my schedule for the markets I will be at for the next eight weeks:

June 14 - Moncton
June 21 - Antigonish
June 28 - Antigonish
July 5 - Moncton
July 12 - Antigonish
July 19 - Moncton
July 26 - Moncton
August 2 - Antigonish

Moncton Market is open from 7am to 2pm, and Antigonish Farmer's Market from 8am to noon. After August, the plan is that I will be rotating alternate weekends. I have teamed up with Mary from Fibrepalooza so that between us, we can commit to take a space at these markets on a regular basis. This makes it easier for the market managers to assign a permanent spot for us, while we get to go to different locations.

Pictou Weekend Market opens for the summer on 21 June and you can visit my booth there on Saturday and Sunday from 10am till 5pm.

An audio-visual presentation

I just love free stuff online. Don't you? Here is a neat little service that made it easy for me to create an audio-visual presentation of some of my work. Enjoy!



The service is called Animoto, and the music is Coquetry by McKenzie Stubbert.
