Craft Fair and Event Schedule and Offerings

I thought I would update you on the events that I have coming up over the next couple of weeks and show you some of my new offerings.

Tomorrow (Sunday, October 4), I will be at the Wilmington Antique and Flea Market.  I will also be there on Saturday and Sunday of Columbus Day weekend.

Saturday, October 17 - you can find me at the Townshend Pumpkin Festival in Townshend, VT

Saturday, October 24 - I will be at the Gilfeather Turnip Festival in Wardsboro, VT inside the Town Hall.

Some of my new offerings include packaged jewelry, altered scarves and Dress Me Up tins.

 

This is what the cover of one of my Dress Me Up tins looks like.  When you open up the tin, you will find...

 

...a little bear waiting to be dressed and a grouping of clothes to dress her up in.  This little tin would make a great gift for a child's birthday, for the holidays or as a stocking stuffer.  All of the clothing and the bear inside the tin are magnetized so you can dress your bear up any way you like.  You can then undress her and change her outfit.  How cute is that?!

Another nice gift idea would be one of my Softer than Cashmere scarves with fabric embellishments.  I offer these in a variety of colors and embellishments.  

 

The sample shown her is an ivory colored scarf with a faux croc patterned embellishment on the front.  These scarves can be washed and hung to dry for use over and over again.  They are soft, cozy and warm.  Get one for yourself and give one as a gift.  

You can visit me at my upcoming events to purchase these items or you can contact me by email to purchase them online.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you at one of my events!

Spring Fling

Today I did two demonstrations at Spring Fling in Marlborough, NH.  I thought it would be fun to share the name tag that I made to wear during the event.  

 

I love creating all different types of projects and this one was no exception.  It was a lot of fun to make and it just so happened to match my clothing too. 

I think that I will need to make some more name tags to wear at some other events I have coming up!

Happy Easter - How About Some Easter Treats?

 

Happy Easter Everybody!

I wanted to share some Easter treats that I made and gave away this weekend.  I had some extra supplies already stamped and punched from projects I was working on last Easter.  I planned on assembling these little guys before now, but this week was a great time to complete them.  I had some Hershey Kisses around the house that I attached the little bunnies to and then i put them out for kids under 10 years old at the Sugarhouse at Timber Creek in Dover, VT.  The bunnies were almost all gone on Friday night leaving only 4 for the crew that arrived on Saturday.  I was thinking that I made enough to last all weekend...guess not:))

These were a popular little treat with the kids.  I hope that everyone enjoyed them!

For those of you that don't really know me or what I do yet, I am a rubber stamper, paper crafter and scrapbooker.  I not only make finished products that i sell at craft fairs, I also take orders for custom projects like family scrapbooks; invitations for showers, weddings and parties; and home decor or other craft items for gifts and favors.  I also attend craft fairs in my area where I make little treats like these bunnies for the kids attending.  My craft fair schedule for 2009 is posted on this blog in the left-hand column.  If you are in need of little treats or favors for your special occasion, please feel free to contact me at lynn@lynnlarsondesigns.com or by calling 802-380-0222. 

I also teach crafting classes of all sorts that are geared toward things like scrapbooking, paper crafts and kids' crafts to name a few.  If you are interested in having a craft class or craft project at your next event, you can email me at lynn@learntostampandscrap.com.  You can also visit my teaching website at www.learntostampandscrap.com where I show different projects that I have done at my classes and events.  I also have some tutorials for projects on my site as well.

Happy Easter to you all and thanks for "hopping" by:))

Craft Classes Are Now Available

Would you like to learn the art of rubber stamping or scrapbooking?  What about stenciling?  I am now offering all types of classes to make projects out of paper, wood and fabrics to name a few.  I am also offering my craft classes for all different occasions such as birthday parties, graduations, reunions, baby showers, wedding showers or get-togethers.

If you have an occasion in which you would like me to teach a craft class or if you would like to take a class with a group of your friends, you can contact me at 802-380-0222 or by email at lynn@lynnlarsondesigns.com.  I offer classes both in my craft studio but can also come to your house or event.

Wedding Save the Date Cards

Some of the work that I do is to create custom cards, invitations and announcements for special events like a wedding, new baby, graduation, engagement, etc. 

Here is a sample of a Save the Date card that I recently completed for one of my clients.

 

Wendy is having me create her wedding invitations and her guest book for her wedding as well.  Her colors are black, white and silver and her wedding is a weekend long event beginning on New Year's Eve.  We kept the Save the Date cards simple, yet elegant to keep within her budget.  Her invitations will have the same color scheme as well and I will be working on creating a few samples for Wendy to chose from over the next week or two.

Nothing is more special than taking the time to create and send handmade cards, scrapbooks and gifts.  If you or anyone in your family is in need of handmade cards, invitations, announcements, scrapbooks, etc. for things like a wedding, graduation, new baby, engagement or other special occasion and would like more information on getting some custom made for your event, you can contact me either by phone (802) 380-0222 or by email at lynn@lynnlarsondesigns.com.  I would be happy to work with you within your budget. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Lynn Larson
