I just finished up a dozen different belt styles, and each one is my favorite. It’s a good problem to have, right? These will be for sale tomorrow at my booth at the Saratoga Art and Craft Fair from 10-4 at High Rock Park (same location as the farmer’s market). I will have these belts, […]
T-3 days and counting!
I’ve been working pretty much every second I haven’t had stay-at-home-mom duties (which means those precious napping hours and after bedtime).

After my class with Claudia Pfeil. My first feather attempt, ever!
I’m official!
Looks like I can go ahead and get my online stuff settled now that I’ve I received my Certificate of Authority from the state of New York! This is really exciting! Now I just need to set up my etsy store and get some stuff in it. SO, basically the last few weeks have been […]
Thinking about doing business in NY as a small craft vendor?
This is not legal advice IN ANY WAY. This was how I started my path to filing as a business in Saratoga County. I admit it was a little daunting to get up and running (and who am I kidding, I ain’t there yet!), but I was honestly surprised and pleased to see how helpful […]
