Craft Fair held 3rd and 4th of April, 2010



Despite some rainy weather at times, the first craft fair at The First House went very well. I would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all our friends and family that put in a LOT of work to help us organize everything for the fair! There are always teething pains when doing something new like this, but thanks to everyone's hard work the craft fair went off without a hitch. We had a really great selection of sellers, and it was a real pleasure to meet such talented crafters from the area. Hopefully next time we will see the sellers back again and perhaps some new folk as well. Here are details of some of the products and sellers that were found at the craft fair this time:
