This was our first time to do this craft show, and it was a lot of fun! You can shop the handmade market for everything from soaps and body scrubs by Fleegal Farms, to handmade pottery, wood-inlay jewelry, wooden boxes and bowls, metal art and much much more.
The real highlight of that weekend was the We Make Stuff event produced by Candace Carlisle of Electric Promotions. The event was a fun evening of crafty-demos by The WonderCraft, an exclusive Handmade Vendor Market, and a Fabulous Fashion Show featuring handbag designs by *annemarie*!

The thing I enjoyed the most about the evening was getting all gussied up in my outfit! A few weeks ago I attended the debut Fashion Show of local Designer Anslee Connell of Savannah Red. I fell in love with her dresses, and asked to "dress" me for the event.
We found the PERFECT dress, and I have not felt that sexy in a looooooong time! My amazing hairpiece was courtesy of Sweettooth Bags, and my unusual one of a kind necklace by Spoilt Victorian Child. Viva Le Austin Designers!
The sassy pictures above are courtesy of Austin's busiest Photo Booth Man... Trevor Ray Thompson. Allison and I are proud that he provided the photo booth for our first Shop Austin Event, as he is getting all famous now!
The Fashion Show was photographed by John Pesina, and you can see more of the pictures of that here.
October looks to be a fun filled month on the Austin Craft Scene and Austin Fashion Scene as well... look for details on Handmade Happenings™ by The Lone Star Ladies coming soon!
