Order of zines from Learning to Leave a Paper Trail Distro

I highly recommend Paper Trail Distro for your zine ordering needs. Ciara runs a super tight operation, and all of her stock is high quality — she’s really picky about the zines she distributes. She’s also an excellent writer, and you can either buy her own zines or check out her new blog, If You Don’t Have Anything Nice to Say, Come Sit Here by Me. She always amazes me with her wit and incisiveness.

This Ain’t Your Grandma’s Craft Sale, Vol. 4

It’s that time of year again! Winnipeg’s best and biggest indie craft sale is back for a fourth helping of excellent local creativity. This is a REAL craft sale — not the kind where you have all kinds of people selling Norwex and dip mixes  (not that there’s anything wrong with those things. They are useful and delicious, respectively. But they’re not crafts).

I will be tabling at this sale, with button jewelry, some plush stuff, knits, and some special holiday ornaments. I hope to see you there! This year’s sale will be the biggest ever, with more vendors and longer hours.

For more info on the sale and a complete list of vendors, visit thisaintyourgrandmascraftsale.blogspot.com.
