Craft Fair At Raspberry Days

 Bear Lake Valley Craft Fair
  
2017 marks the 8th year for the annual Bear Lake Valley Craft Fair – the indoor Raspberry Days venue.  Last year was our best attended fair yet so we hope you will all stop by to make this year's event even better.

What makes us especially unique is that every item at our fair is handcrafted by our vendors who are masters of their respective trades.  This year we will be featuring exceptional wood crafts of all kinds, handsewn/crocheted/quilted kitchen accessories including my favorite scrubbies, hotpads, aprons, table runners, and so much more.  We will also have an eclectic assortment of amazing jewelry plus handcut, shaped, and polished gemstone cabochons and hand-knapping demonstrations.  There will be handpainted gourds, a variety of fused glass items, and handmade soap.  Animals Need Help of Bear Lake will be fundraising by selling their cute shirts, caps, tote bags, and other items with their “We are their hope, you are their future” logo.  

Quilts tied by our humanitarian quilters will be on sale as a fundraiser for them to buy batting.  Our very own Papa's Chocolates will be on hand with their luscious (and addicting) chocolates, caramels, peanut brittle, toffee, chocolate coated raspberries and huckleberries, and waffle cones with Aggie ice cream.  And new this year is handmade children's clothing ranging in size from newborn to size 10. 

I've seen pictures of some of the items and they are adorable. 

Once again, we will be in the Lakeside Bldg located in the Garden City Complex on 300 W just north of the library.  Raspberry Days is Aug. 3-5 and we will be open on Thu and Fri from 10 am – 7 pm and on Sat from 10 – 6.  See you there!
