Getting Ready for the Spring Handmade Cavalcade...


The Spring Handmade Cavalcade is coming up in less than 2 weeks and the team is working on final preparations... Shoppers who have come to the previous Handmade Cavalcades know that one of the perks for early shoppers, in addition to getting the be the first to see new work from local NY artsits is getting your hands on one of the Team's famous goody bags. This Cavalcade will be no exception - we will have a brand new design of {NewNew} tote bags.





Three members of the team recently had a screen printing session to get ready for the big event. Check out the photos from our crafting session:
