Next week: Chicago « Renegade Craft Fair

Great Labor Day weekend. But I'm already thinking about next weekend's destination -- The Chicago stop for the Renegade Craft Fair in Wicker Park -- Music, food, and of course crafts! See you there September 11 & 12. 

Hundreds of today’s finest indie-craft talents will be setting up shop at The 8th Annual Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago, where our FREE TO ATTEND craft, art, design and DIY spectacular was born and raised!
