EcoChic

It's just about "that time" gang...THIS WEEKEND is our team's 2nd annual signature event, The Eco Chic Craftacular!!!

Let us describe what your day(s) with us shall include:
Unique handcrafted goods, upcycled creations, original art, alternative crafts, live acoustic music (inside and out), strolling magician, chalk art, hands-on childrens' creative activity, WORM and composting info, fresh bakery goods, kettle corn, barbecue, seafood, swag bags, raffle and games!!!

Perhaps you're in the mood for one of a kind clothing presented by local designers? Need some gift ideas? Hand painted glassware is perfect for special occasions and every day! How about handbags from vintage designer fabrics? Or appliqued and hand painted purses and pouches? Memorable jewelry and baubles? Ohio-proud screenprinting? Multi-media collages, original handpainted canvas wall art? Hand poured soaps and candles? Felted goods? We will have all of this and so much more! Keep in mind that some element of every seller's wares will be Earth friendly or recycled/repurposed/re-imagined.

While our vendors get to keep 100% of their proceeds, much of the funds raised from our sponsors go to the Whetstone Community Center. Our raffle ticket sales will benefit Local Matters. And our THEME encourages both consumers and creative types to THINK GREEN. It would be so good of you to join us in supporting our peers and these excellent causes.

Time: SATURDAY, May 22, 2010 10am to 6pm and SUNDAY, May 23, 2010 noon to 5pm

Also, either before or after you stop by, please be sure to visit our friends at AGORA too! We are happy to see the cross-collaborative and cooperative vibe of Columbus' art scene continue to GROW and flourish. NAMASTE.

This giveaway has ended. The winner will be announced shortly. Thanks to all who participated!



With the upcoming spring/summer craft show season in sight, most of us could probably use some promotional materials that we can leave out on the booths or pass around to promote our respective businesses or services. Thanks to UPrinting, we have 500 business cards to give away to our blog readers! To sweeten the deal, Free UPS Ground shipping within the US is included so it would be $0 out of pocket for the winner.

If you already stocked up on business cards, consider using the prize to create thank you cards, or tags to add to the customer's purchase. Uprinting has the traditional 2 X 3.5" business card size, but also has the 2 X 2" square size and 1.5 X 3.5" slim cards that would work well for this suggestion. Don't worry if you are not a designer, Uprinting has many ready-made templates that you can customize with your product photo or logo.

Here are the prize details:
  • Giveaway Prize: 500 Business Cards for One (1) Winner
  • Sizes: 2 x 3.5”, 2 x 3”, 2 x 2” (square card) or 1.5 x 3.5” (slim card)

  • Specifications: Full Color Both Sides; Offset Press; 3 Business Day Printing

Thanks for participating!

Disclosure: Etsy Team Columbus will receive 500 business cards as well at the conclusion of this giveaway.
