It was a great way to kick off the holiday season. I love that there was an outdoor craft show at…read moreWashington Park at the same time, so I got a "two-fer." I shopped there for the traditional arts and crafts gifts, then went into the side door of Music Hall (yes, at you're looking at it, the fair can only be accessed through the left-hand side door of music hall) for unique artist-made crafts. I didn't buy much -- just a silk-screened t-shirt and some tasty Jalapeno jelly -- it was the perusing itself, and talking directly to the artists that was the joy of the season. And I had some great, animated conversations with the artists themselves, who were helpful and excited to talk about their work. Yes, these are hand-made specialty items, so the price was high. But it is going directly to the artists, so it is worth it.

The booths were very high-end, offering great design and well-made products. Eli's BBQ was there, along with a bar, coffee stand, and gelto. It wasn't very crowded when we went, so take that for what it is. YMMV. Be prepared to spend some serious cash, also. I didn't buy many things, but the bill was high. I like supporting artists and designers, so I don't mind, but it certainly isn't a budget shopping experience.

Whether it be a figurine, plate, pot, vase, bowl, etc. pricing ranges from size of the product. There are different paints you can choose from. You have to do three coatings, and at the end they will glaze your product and you pick it up in two weeks. There is a service fee for the paints. My only con was they were sold out of a lot of products so there weren't a lot to choose from their selection. I picked out a pot for my plants. Overall it was a great experience and would recommend this to those who want to do something different. Plus it's therapeutic. Me and my friends had fun.

Be sure to check them out and support local!

SO FUN!!! On our family adventure day, my 5-year-old picked this place. We walked in with no clue…read morewhat we were about to get into. I thought it was a local scent shop. They have two counters where you can make your own candle scent. It is so fun!!!! You tell them six scents you like and pick a container. They all cost about $25 for a medium sized candle. Then mix away. The counter hosts offer support during the whole process. Wax is poured and you label. Two hours later you can return to pick up the set candle. My kid mixed mango, orange and lavender- I am shocked by the amazing scent!!!! It's FIRE!!!! Party space is available and they sell a variety of personal items or premade candles also. GREAT fun family or girls outting.

This is great place to stop if you need a gift or a greeting card for someone, although prices are a little steep.

I needed to grab a gift for a friend and my toddler was VERY excited by all the cute toys which, as other mamas can imagine, made it a bit tricky to get my shopping done. The shop owner, Brittney, jumped in and started chatting with my little one and even read her a book so I could grab what I needed. Above and beyond!! Such a sweet gesture of kindness that sets this shop above the rest. Please support these local women owners by shopping here!

I saw that beyond painting you can also use wheels and make your own stuff. There's a decent selection of things to paint (always the hardest choice) and then a wall filled with different paints and little pictures of what it'll actually look like once glazed. I appreciated the emphasis on how the color will differ based on how many layers you paint it. There's also soooo many stamps and lace and texture type stuff to help you in your design. You pay after finishing and then they'll call you once it's done (for me it was like two weeks later but it was also the holiday season). Very enjoyable time!
