Of course, we loaded up on cool stuff while we were there. Here's what tickled our fancy:
A couple of things are gifts, but one of them is for Hubsey and since he was with me when I bought it... And the other is just our plan to bring the spicy popcorn to my parents' house for Christmas (act surprised, Mom!).
Anyway, let's break it down with some websites, shall we?
Adorable sewn letter cutouts from Circle Street.
Chicago love embroidered wall art from White Nest.
Delicious heirloom tomato salsa from River Valley Kitchens, hot pepper infused popcorn from Sonoma Farm (for my folks), and bison salami from North Prairie (for the Hubs).
Eco-friendly/chemical-free soap and deodorant from the Duggan Sisters. This stuff is also available on Amazon and at Whole Foods, for those interested.
And finally, a set of silver stack rings for me from the Hubs, made by Taber Studios.
Has anybody else been one OOAK? I believe they have them in other cities, too, but I'm not sure where. How was your weekend? Do anything fun?
The silver rings are awesome!~Cindy

That salsa looks delicious! It looks like you guys found a lot of great stuff. The OOAK show sounds like an amazing place. We have something called The Riverside Arts Market every saturday with local artists/food/music but it isn't all that impressive honestly.
ReplyDeleteLove that show - great finds!!!!
ReplyDeletePretty rings and neat wall art! That looks like it would be such a fun show to go to! So many different kinds of finds.
ReplyDeleteWow, you guys found some great stuff :) We just had HolidayHeap here in Baltimore, but I was too sick to go :( I was so bummed! I love the rings and the Chicago embroidery!

What a fun show...and fun buys! I got to walk around some shows I vended at this year, but haven't been able to attend any bigger shows in the city yet.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you scored big! :) I've never been to one of the OOAK shows but I know folks who have sold in it (NY & Chicago) and just rave about it. I hope to check it out one day. I thought it was for more high-end crafts but I could be wrong?
ReplyDeleteSome great buys - I always try to shop handmade, particularly at this time of year. I love the Chicago wall decor. So cute!
ReplyDeleteI totally think I need some of that popcorn! YUM!
ReplyDeleteI've never been to this show, but I love craft and art shows and food festivals too, and it looks like you found some great stuff! :)
ReplyDeletesounds like a fun show, and you picked out some great items :)

Marilyn, they had a mix of high-end and "regular" stuff. There was a section of fine artists, but everything else ranged from inexpensive to moderately priced.
ReplyDeleteWow I have never seen Bison salami, but now I want to try it.
ReplyDeleteYou got some awesome stuff! I really love the embroidery art!
ReplyDeleteI love OOAK events like these. You brought home wonderful goodies. Those stack rings are beautiful and I like the wall art too!
