Sweet.

Illustrating Childhood

Sarah Jane’s images are simple, naïve and leave room for the viewer to imagine their own story. Her art is simple like a child’s mind, yet reflects vintage elements of times past mixed with fresh and modern color palettes. Sarah Jane’s work is perfect for the modern nursery and play room as colors are often inspired from her favorite Children’s designers.
Beautiful Things



"I love beautiful things, but I am also an extremely practical person. I enjoy coming up with ways of taking a functional object such as a purse, a bar of soap or even a simple scarf and turning them into works of art without taking away from their function. That’s why I refer to my work as Functional Fiber Art. These are, for the most part, beautiful works of art, but they also are able to have a purpose. It reminds me of the human race, we also are works of art with purpose." Vanessa Mueller
Ms. Glitter



Hailey Meyer Liechty (aka Ms. Glitter) will be adding a generous dash of her unique sparkle to this years Bazaar with her line of felt goods, including tissue holders and needle books--check 'em out...
One Wish World

Beehive Bazaar veteran Mindy Relyea will be sharing her latest One Wish World line of t-shirts and hoodies. One of our favorite things about Mindy is her generosity--she donates $10 from every shirt sold to ReachTheChildren.org.

Loveland Miscellany

Loveland Miscellany showcases the combined and various works of Mike and Alma
Loveland. Married less than a year, the two are mixing the styles and media that they had
mastered on their own in a variety of projects, including watercolor and acryllic paintings and
prints, mixed media paintings and prints, felt brooches and glass cuff links, and small felt
children’s toys. The couple are inspired by the things they see around them and are always
eager to try something new, which yields a surprising, if miscellaneous assortment of products.

goods from the coal umbrella

candle holders made from collages using scrapbook paper, stamps, vintage photographs and more. . .

Wallets made by MaxineDear. The wallet making process...they remove the covering from the cardboard backing which gives hardback books their stiffness, then wrap this woven material over a soft thin leather to create a sturdy and comfortable wallet. Fabulous.

Paper packets chocked full of beautiful paper scraps, each little pile is a surprise from vintage wrapping paper to postage stamps, illustrations and more. Grab one for yourself, you deserve a little surprise. Note: Each mini pile is unique.

envelop design

"I love magazines and I always find some sort of inspiration by reading them. But a woman can only have so many magazines!" That is why Diana Camomile Peck of Envelop Design came up with the idea of rather than throwing her magazines away she could recycle them by turning them into envelopes. "The art in magazines is beautiful as well as silly and it is a shame to just throw it away." These envelopes are unusual and you can always find the perfect envelop that is fitting to a specific person. Each envelope is lined and includes a notecard and address label.

Persimmon and Pink

Handmade loveliness in wools and cottons. A bit of art meets craft. I think everyone will agree...Persimmon and Pink will be a lovely addition to the show this spring.

Every sweater she makes is an absolute one-of-a-kind. Put together in an "upcycle" fashion, she literally pieces them together from lots of other sweaters to come up with the finished product. She love colors and patterns of all kinds, along with flowers and trees and trims, all of which you will find on every finished product.

This gingerbread house just won a blue ribbon in the Gingerbread Festival at Thanksgiving Point. Could you die?... I don't think I've ever seen such an amazing work in gingerbread (click on the image to see the picture full-size).
Lisa Greenhalgh has over 20 years experience in designing and building gingerbread houses. We are happy to feature her amazing talents as part of the show this Christmas. She will be making houses that are just a little bit smaller than this scrumptious castle, although she will make special orders...

It's a Christmas tradition your family will love...and they make wonderful gifts!

They are a must for any handy gals- or your mother (hint) who just might need a safe place to store her pins and needles while on the go.
