Join the Olympia Weaver's guild for their annual Show & Sale

Here is an opportunity to let your wallet vote your Values!

Join the Olympia Weaver's Guild for their 25th Annual Show & Sale this weekend:
December 6 & 7 2008
10 am to until 6 pm
At the Boston Harbor Firestation (5046 Boston Harbor Rd NE).

There is a lot of talk about spending your dollars locally and all the benefits to the community, but sometimes there are few options to do that. Which is why the hoilday season is such fun! You will be able to find all sorts of unique handmade items, from finished clothing like scarves & hats to stocking stuffers like hand-dyed yarns from the spinners own flock.

You can't get much more local than yarn dyed with local plants, spun from the wool of sheep living a few miles away!

This annual event was previously held at the WA State Capitol Museum, but has moved now, so be sure to get the address correct. Other events that weekend

The silk painting pictured above is by the Guild's own Erica Plotkin.
(And in the interest of full disclosure, I am a newbie member of the Guild too.)

If you are interested in joining the Olympia Weaver's Guild, or are just curious what we do, please visit our website at http://olympiaweaversguild.org/ and join us for one of our fantastic meetings!
