Stillwater Christmas Bazaar

We finally got to attend an event this year! We told you about the Stillwater Christmas Bazaar a few weeks ago and we went and had such a great time!

We loved all of the different crafts and products, and we saw a few familiar faces (we’re looking at you, Lindsey @ Yellowquil). Check out the pictures below!

Also, for the first time in over 25 years, the Holiday Bazaar at Be Hope Church (formerly Beavercreek Church of the Nazarene) is cancelled. We are so sad we won’t be able to attend this, as it is one of our favorite holiday events.

Wright Library Literary Zine Reception

Posted on by
As we shared back in February, Wright Memorial Public Library turned 80 this year!

To celebrate, Wright Library decided to publish an art and literary zine made up of poetry, short stories, essays, and art focusing on the Miami Valley, the Wright Brothers, and more.

We both submitted written pieces to the zine, and we were both lucky enough to be selected for publication in the zine Glide and the online zine, Glide On! We will update with the link after the online zine is released!

There is a reception and open mic tonight from 7-8:30 at Wright Library to celebrate the release of the print and online zines! If you are interested in a copy of the print edition or want to join the festivities, please stop by!

Dayton Crafty Con 2019

Posted on by

We went to Crafty Con on April 5th, and had a blast!

As we do every year, we absolutely loved all of the fantastic scented lotions, candles, waxes, and soaps at Tasha’s Common Scents – especially the Black Ice, Volcano, and Thunderstorm scents!

We also had an absolute blast talking to Sew Late at Night learning all of the backstories of the creatures they make.

The BCN Holiday Bazaar is Tomorrow!

After attending the Gem City Made craft show at the Beavercreek Church of the Nazarene back in May, everyone told us that if we enjoyed that craft show, then we definitely needed to attend the annual Holiday Bazaar at the church in the fall. Since then, we’ve been looking forward to it!

The Holiday Bazaar was founded in 1992, and is one of the community’s largest craft shows with gifts, homemade treats, and handmade crafts, and admission is free!

When:
Saturday, November 10th from 9am-3pm

When:
Beavercreek Church of the Nazarene
1850 North Fairfield Road
Beavercreek, OH 45432

If you happen to see us there, please don’t hesitate to say hi!

Gem City Made Craft Show

We visited the Gem City Made craft show on May 5th, held at the Beavercreek Nazarene Church. There were a ton of vendors, with amazing handmade products from glasswork and woodwork to jewelry and bags, to pet accessories, wreaths, and crochet!

This year was only the second year for Gem City Made, but Beavercreek Nazarene has been holding a Holiday Bazaar every November for over 25 years! We’ll make sure to post details about the Holiday Bazaar before the event in early November.

During the event, we made sure to visit every booth, and we saw a few familiar faces, but met a lot of great new vendors.
