Carolina Crafting

Christmas shopping begins in earnest on Friday. I’m sure all of you have lists and sale ads in hand…..but stop for a second. Do you really want to go to the mall and buy something everyone else is buying or would you rather give something unique and personal???? I know the answer for me. I want to give something special. There are MANY craft shows this weekend and in the next couple of weeks. There are craft consignment stores and church bazaars. This is where you need to shop. This year, more than ever, it’s time to shop local. I live in an area where there are very few shopping choices. (I live 2 hours from any major city) I learned early that the best places to shop were in the stores that are locally owned.

This weekend I will be in Franklin, NC for Mistletoe Magic. It’s right on 441 across from the Whistlestop Mall. If you come by, please stop and chat. I love when I meet people who watch my web casts. My little shop in Brasstown will be closed this weekend but next weekend (Dec. 6-7) Please come by. All the shops in Brasstown Village are having an open house. There will cookies, hot cocoa and other surprises.

I promise to post more often. Ron (the camera guy) was in town last week and we taped more shows for you all to enjoy. I’ve got great stories to tell.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Just Jackie
