It's FRIDAY!! Almost time for CRAFT HAPPY!!

We are really, really looking forward to tomorrow's show - so many talented artists, a beautiful day, and hopefully a lot of visitors!

If you haven't already, check out our article in from Inside Bay Area (Fremont Argus, Hayward Daily Review). It is also on the SJ Mercury News website.

Also, we were featured with an article in the Ohlone College Monitor yesterday (starts on page 1, then go to page 6). Congrats to one of our artists, Melinda Mae, for having a picture and caption in the article!

See everyone tomorrow!! Please stay tuned for a few more posts today. . . = )

Jinny Ly @ CRAFT HAPPY


Sweets should not be limited to just being eaten! We think that the best sweets deserve to be remembered time and again, and Jinny Ly has done just that - these adorably cute creations will be at CRAFT HAPPY tomorrow! Our personal favorite - the biscuit cookie earrings!

Sweet cake earrings, yum!!

Cupcakes, without the calories!

Mary Van Note @ CRAFT HAPPY


Ok, so you could use your imagination to guess what it would be like to date comedian and artist Mary Van Note. Or, you could stop by on Saturday and pick up one of her zines for yourself. While you're at it, check out her t-shirts and totes and edgy cross stitch too.
Look for her with UnderWing Designs and Hagar's Hairclips!




Beverly Travlos @ CRAFT HAPPY

Are you as excited as us that the weather is balmy and flowers are blossoming everywhere? Beverly Travlos' handmade jewelry looks perfect for Spring time! Find some earrings or a necklace for your next soiree!


Allie & Belle Designs @ CRAFT HAPPY

We'd both agree that hand writing notes and letters should never go out of style! E-mail is wonderful, but we think everyone should have that joy and magic that accompanies opening a handmade card. = )

We're happy to have Allie & Belle's adorable, chic line of stationery and cards at CRAFT HAPPY this weekend!

Check these out!

Cat Happy!

I'm hard at work with my newest adventure, Lolocat Fabrics. Just finished a crocheted "Lolo", here he is with the real Lolo (aka Laurel).



Here is the real Lolo again - such a good model!

Hopefully I'll have some fabric and cards out on Saturday!

Are you as awestruck as us? Jewelry designer Yasmin Perez's jellyfish are breathtaking pieces - she's managed to make metal look ethereal, floating and quite delicate. We're really looking forward to what she'll bring to CRAFT HAPPY!

The Curious Bee @ CRAFT HAPPY

Alongside Sylvia Min (see previous post) will be The Curious Bee! Shelby particularly likes the name, we wonder why :)
Jill Ringler's design concept embraces what we should all aspire to - look to what might otherwise be discarded and transform it into something new (and better!).
Here's some of her accessories:

Cross-stitch Umbrella pin

Child's apron, made from reclaimed fabrics


Coasters made with reclaimed fabrics

Sylvia Min @ CRAFT HAPPY

Designer Sylvia Min makes handmade, eco-friendly accessories for both you and your home. Watch for her selection of totes, pouches, pillows and brooches at CRAFT HAPPY this Saturday.

Sylvia's tote bags are made of organic cotton and feature unique hand-stitching and hand-painted detailing - no two are the same!

Woody Miller Art @ CRAFT HAPPY


Woody Miller's art has captured our hearts - his work is wonderfully imaginative and his use of color is exceptional. Any of his pieces would be a welcome addition to a child's room (or one's living room, really!). He also has some lovely little bird felt ornaments.




P.s. We're hoping Woody has some copies of the book he's just illustrated, "Meet the Howlers" at our show this Saturday. It looks fantastic! If not, check it out here. Order it through him and he'll sign a copy for you!
