WASHINGTON (March 12, 2009) – Downtown Washington Borough will be teeming with activities, entertainers, crafters, artisans, exhibitors and street vendors of all sorts when the Washington Business Improvement Districts (WBID) hosts its 1st Annual Warren County Bazaar on Saturday April 25.
The Bazaar will also include demonstrations and lots of fun stuff for the entire family, a chance for kids and their moms and dads to enjoy a fun-filled day from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.!
Several downtown businesses will be hosting their own activities. Sal’s Pizza is going to have a special activity for kids, “Make Your Own Pizzas” for just $3. Children can go to Sherwin Williams and a “Make a Gift for Mom.” Meanwhile, Ink Works will air brush a motorcycle and the Washington Christian Bookstore is scheduling Christian Story Hours during the day. Fliegauf’s Jewelers will do free ring cleanings and free appraisals. Other downtown businesses will be participating as well.
Expect to see tents set up all along Washington Avenue (Route 57) with vendors, organizations and exhibitors showcasing their products and services. Throughout the day there will be demonstrations, street performances and other activities. Vendor space is still available.
“While arts and crafts are still a major component of our spring show, the intention is to give this event an even broader appeal,” said Sandi Cerami, Executive Director of the WBID. “We’ve made it so there is something for everyone!”
The Warren County Bazaar Fair will take place in the downtown from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. To reserve your space, contact the WBID immediately. There is a $20 registration fee with day of show registration of $30 if space is available.

Made in Mexico

While on our trip to Mexico I made some REALLY pretty things. I love working with delica beads and all the great colors. Right before we left I found patterns and instructions by Suzanne Cooper for 'really round flat peyote'. What fun I had creating these round medallions and using my own color combinations. The designs are placed on compact mirrors and pillboxes. Great additions to a take along in a purse.

We're Back!

It's time to get back to work after such a long and relaxing vacation. I could not update my blog because the wireless connection was down or slow most of time, very disappointing. This week I need to help my parents and watch Sophia. Hope to have time to create this weekend.

Wireless Was Down

It was torture having the wireless down! No e-mail, no checking Etsy and all the other things we use the internet for. Let's hope it does not do down again. Well today we went into El Centro and walked around. We bought some fresh shrimp in the market and made pasta and shrimp tonight for dinner, yummm. We both sat in the sum to much today so tomorrow is an off sun day for me. Enjoy the pictures!

El Quelite

Today the morning was very very foggy but then blue skies and lots of sunshine. Tom had a pool day and I went on a tour of a little town called El Quelite with a new friend, Lucia. What a pretty town, colorful houses, pretty flowers and good food. Great day!

Hola!

Today is Wed and it is very warm and humid here in Mazatlan Mexico. We went out to a very nice outside resturant for breakfast this morning called Mary's. The pancakes, bacon and breakfast sandwich were outstanding! Tom is out playing golf this afternoon and I'm just hanging out messing with the computer and beading.

Adios!

We're Here!

Well we finally made it to Mazatlan. We were up at 3am and made it to Mazatlan around 3PM on Sat. LOVE it here sunny and warm. I have a head cold so the flight was rough on my ears. Today is Mon and we are off to a great day.

2009 Craft shows

What a day! Trying to line up craft is very hard work. I sent in a bunch of applications today and hope to get into several shows in NJ. Lots of information and pictures had to be sent in. I hope to be very busy in 2009!

We're off to Mazatlan!

No More Twitter

I could not figure out Twitter and all the 'social networking' stuff is getting out of hand. I need to spend time making things. I think I need to find sites where I can place adds for folks who want to buy handmade things. If anyone is reading this please let me know your suggestions. Bye to Twitter!
