Back to Eugene Saturday Market

Well, after considering it over the winter, we have decided to go ahead with Saturday Market this year.  We have both had our vaccinations, and we are good to go.  There are still restrictions in effect – only every other booth space is covered each week, so it means we will be there on alternating weeks.  Since we are odd (!!), we will be on the 2nd and fourth weeks, even numbered booths will be on the 1st and third.  This may change as the season goes on, hopefully we will at some point be able to have all the vendors there every week.  Masks are still required, I will have hand sanitizer and wipes in my booth.

I am excited about it.  I took last year off from sales and just holed up in the studio making things.  Which is the part I enjoy the most anyway.  Without the pressure to make a lot of items for inventory, I spent more time on individual pieces, adding carving, color and pyrography.  It will be interesting to see how the public responds to it.

I am keeping my Items For Sale page up and will add more photos before market opens.  Not everything I make will be shown at Saturday Market.  Some items are too fragile or precious to haul back and forth every week, with the expectation that they will be handled multiple times each day.

Look for my booth on the Northeast corner, behind the Pizza vendor.  And if it looks like rain, I probably won’t be there – wood and water don’t work for me~
