Crafty Junkie


If you are as much of a junky for modern craft fairs as I am, then you should head over to Fort Mason next weekend for the Renegade Craft Fair. Thankfully, craft fairs have evolved from the crochet kleenex box cozies and seashell animal art I saw ask a kid, to cool, small production t-shirts, beautiful letterpress stationery, and funky tote bags. I checked out the link to some of the vendors at this event, and there's even a custom flavor vegan ice cream vendor. Sounds like it's worth a try!

Apparently this fair has been held successfully in Brooklyn and Chicago, so we're lucky they've expanded to us here in SF! There are 200 vendors, and since they received double that amount of applicants, the sponsor has had to carefully choose the best ones to include, most exemplifying the idea of DIY and contemporary. No doilies here!
