HollyDay Handmade Artist Market 2012

We had a lot of fun this past weekend at the HOLLYDAY HANDMADE ARTIST MARKET, hosted by the always awesome TREEHOUSE KID & CRAFT here in Athens, GA...We arrived at Treehouse around 8:30am to set up and had to figure out how to condense two-tables' worth of stuff onto one table. Our solution was to build up and to selectively leave some things off the table in favor of our "best-sellers"...

















The sale started at 10am with a BANG - literally! A three-car accident happened out on the street right in front of Treehouse. This was the scene after the cars pulled off the road and a bunch of us cleared debris off the road and made sure everyone in the accident were okay...you can see folks milling about the corner where the accident just happened, a cop across the street making an accident report, and Treehouse owner, Kristen, in the street sweeping up broken glass:



Though it was a nice day, it was still a little chilly in the shade of the awning. The inside of the store offered a nice break from the cold and more opportunities for holiday shopping...







The sun came out in full around noon, just as the FARM CART arrived in time to serve up hot chocolate and lunch. Between the warm sun and the Farm Cart, it was finally time to venture out past the shade...
