I love to go to flea markets and craft shows. I love handcrafted items. I guess that is why I own the business I do (www.sweetdesigninc.com) because of my love of craft items. How about you?

I also purchase homemade crafts at craft fairs and trade shows. Currently, my mom and I are at a craft fair selling items that we have made. I looked at your site and it is a great site.


myLot reputation of 99/100. sweetdesign (2193)  6 years ago

Thanks. I am in the middle of launching two new lines Big Sweet Tots (ceramics) and Lil Sweet Tots (polymers). So what do you and your mom create?

I love going to craft fairs just to see what is out there and get ideas of what I can make. I don't generally buy any because I know i can make my own.


myLot reputation of 99/100. sweetdesign (2193)  6 years ago

I get a lot of ideas from looking at what others are doing. I generally do it just a little different (sometimes a lot different) and put my own unique spin on it. I make it my creation lol. It is funny how two people can sit down with a lump of clay and both make a dolly according to a laid out plan and each one looks totally different from the other!


myLot reputation of 97/100. craftwave (806)  6 years ago

that is what I so love about doing crafts. You can all have the same materials and it will still look different.

I have never been to a flea market, but I do go to craft shows. I sell at them also. I make hair bows and bow displays(boards and ribbon hangers), photo boards, hand painted or otherwise embellished overalls etc. My mom does crochet hats and scarves, we do embellished flip flops in the summer.

no, i don't buy craft items, but here in the Philippines, there are lots of handicrafts made by the locals which were bought by most tourists.

I guess handicrafts deserve to have a higher value compared to industry made things as the hand mades were given more effort, time and of course skill by determined group of people..

I make hair bows, AKA boutique hair bows. I love making fluffy, funky, and colorful ones. My daughter wears them and always turns heads and gets compliments. I have a myspace page promoting them; I sell locally and through online orders.


myLot reputation of 99/100. sweetdesign (2193)  6 years ago

That sounds great. What is your myspace address? I work mostly in ceramics,polymers,yarns. In fact I poured two molds yesterday with my ceramics. I love doing creative things.

I will go with my mom to craft fairs. I like to see what is new or something that might grab my attention. I like to make things myself so that gives me a lot of ideas.


myLot reputation of 99/100. sweetdesign (2193)  6 years ago

I go for the same reason. I haven't bought much of anything at a crafts fair except a couple of times I have bought my daughter something when she was little. She is 16 now and still likes to go to flea markets and such.

I like to make handcrafted items more than buying them.
I like looking at things and sometimes I can figure out how to make them.
Anyhow, crafting is an important part of my life.
