Today was the first day of the first annual Renegade Craft Fair held in Los Angeles. It’s held in Chicago and Brooklyn and San Francisco and I barely heard about it making an appearance here. I wish I had applied. But today I snooped. I was in search of glass people. My people. And I found a few…well more than a few but not as many as I had expected or honestly had hoped for (makes me really wish I had applied). The work I did find was really cool and I plan to show off each artists’ work in the coming days. For more information on the Renegade Craft Fair check out their web site at http://www.renegadecraft.com/. After the show today the good people of etsy are hosting a little get together. I’m headed there now. More on that later…

It’s the perfect conversation starter, and honestly, it brings a certain wow factor to any dinner party or casual gathering.
