Renegade for a day

This was my first time attending Renegade Craft Fair and I loved it. Being sort of an indie crafts fair junkie, I had high expectations about the quality and variety of work that would be there and I'm happy to report that RCF was all I was hoping it would be. We did a lot of shopping, sweating, business card collecting and met some artists and bloggers whose work I've long admired (um, that would be you Rachel Denbow, Tad Carpenter and Laura Berger!)


I scored the earrings above from Another Feather, and then we bought a million hilarious greeting cards from various booths that I will probably hoard forever instead of giving them to the people they are meant for.  We also indulged in shameless collecting of cat art. The first two prints are from Laura Berger and the third one down is from Matt Cipov, who was really nice and gave us one of his a sweet sloth illustration for free.

This last cat isn't from Renegade, but we have a print of it hanging in our living room and it didn't seem right to post all the other cats without including Angry Sailor, the cornerstone of our cat art collection. He's by JillianEvelyn.

So, Renegade was the jam. I'll definitely be back - my goal is to be there again next summer but as a vendor!
