Holiday Handmade Cavalcade 2014

Leave a comment

IG_banner_cavalcade14 DL v3I am very happy to announce that I will be selling at the Holiday Handmade Cavalcade on December 13-14. This year is very special since we secured a space at CHELSEA MARKET! I’ve been hearing estimates of 15,000-20,000 people making their way through the market during that time of year, so this will easily be my biggest market to date.

I’ve been embroidering nonstop, working to create enough inventory for this big event. I’ll also have some unique items not available at the shop, as well as variations on current listings which have not been listed on Etsy. For more details check out the website and RSVP to the Facebook event.

I also wanted to say that I will be going out of town for Thanksgiving. I will be keeping the shop open, but all orders will be shipped out Monday morning.

Apologies for the long silence, following a long break after the holidays, I am gearing up for the next big project for the shop. I am very happy to announce that Koto will be showing at the next Handmade Cavalcade on May 4 at The Space in Williamsburg (503 N 3rd Street).

I’ve been designing, poking and sewing away trying to roll out a variety of new products for the show.

Since Mother’s Day is the following weekend I prepared several cards that would be appreciated by moms.

Above you’ll see a mother and baby owl card, a trio of flowers, and geometric MOM text cards.

I’ve also expanded on the super popular bike mini-notebooks and enlarged them into sketchbooks.

In addition to the bikes, you’ll find a variety of geometric patterns on sketchbooks.

These notebooks are inspired by the decorations on the earth houses in Tiébélé, Burkina Faso.

After the show I’ll be updating the Etsy shop with new listings for everything, but to get first shot at these products (and to avoid the wait of me making new inventory), come check out the Spring Handmade Cavalcade, this Saturday, May 4!

Holiday Handmade Cavalcade in Williamsburg

I am very happy to announce that I will be participating in my first ever craft show, Handmade Cavalcade! It’s a bi-annual event organized by the Etsy New York Team, also known as The New New. The team has been a great resource for me as I work on improving my shop, and I’m working hard to prepare for the event. It will take place over two days, December 1-2, just in time for the holiday shopping season. I’ve been creating displays, developing packaging and expanding product lines, which I will feature here in the upcoming weeks. Hope to see you there!
