OxfordFest 2013
Last Saturday we set up our first ever booth at a craft fair – otherwise known as OxfordFest! This is a huge event every year in my hometown of Oxford, AL, and we were excited to be a part of it!
We had a great time visiting with friends, family, and donors, and introducing new people to our beautiful handmade items from around the world!
It was an awesome opportunity for people to #shopHOPE and to make a different in the world with their purchase. We also got to share a lot of fun stories about our work, and answer questions.
It was unexpectedly HOT on Saturday (which made it tough to sell warm scarves!) but we still had a great time.
The most encouraging thing was to see the people who would stop by just to drop off a small donation. Whether it was $2 or $20 – it was nice to see that people still care. Oxford, AL – you are a generous bunch! Thanks for filling up our donation jar!
Thank you to the OxfordFest Committee & everyone who stopped by our booth!
*If you didn’t get to come to OxfordFest but like what you see, keep checking back in our online store over the next few months! I’ll be working hard to get some of these items up for sale online before Christmas.<
