First of all – Happy New Year, Everyone! ^_^ I trust everyone has a fun time? At least, I hope that was the case. Things were a bit hectic around here, but everything’s fine now and I can start manning the pliers once more.

But the big news – I’ve been accepted to the upcoming I Made It! Market on February 6th. It’s right before Valentine’s Day, so it’s a good opportunity to avoid the crowds that always flood the stores on that weekend. And you can give yourself a pat on the back for getting that special someone something truly unique, whether from me or another artist there. Heck, there’s a good chance you can get something customized and in your hands before the holiday hits because we’re all local. Bonus!

If you’re interested, here are the details:
What: I Made It! Market
When: Saturday, February 6, 2010 from 12 pm – 5 pm
Where: The Union Project, 801 N. Negley Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15206
Who: Rabbit Dance (myself) and over 50 other artisans! That’s more selection than your average shopping mall (if you don’t count the food courts, that is.)

If you’d like more info, you can check out the I Made It! Blog. You can find a complete vendor listing, bios, and more. If you know someone who loves funky handmade gifts, spread the word! Here’s a fun image to get you started on your word-spreading. Give it a click for the whole she-bang.
