Renegade LA Craft Fair: Oh There Went my Paycheck

It looks like I’ll be eating pasta and microwave pizza for the next two weeks. This past weekend was the Renegade LA Craft and it was amazing. Young crafters from all over were there to show off their best. Joni had the difficult task of making sure I didn’t spend all my money on the first row of sellers (which I totally wanted to do). There were many times where she’d have to trick me and say, “why don’t we look around first and come back after?” We all know that’s parent-code for “No.” So bless Joni’s heart for keeping me in check and not letting me blow my entire rent this weekend.
We got there around 11:30am (half an hour after it opened) and it was already packed. There were so many great designers from all over the country, plus a few of my favorites from the Long Beach craft fair last month.
By 2pm, I was sunburnt and broke. Oh well, I scored lots of good loot!

I know you can't see my face, but I figure most people will recognize me as the big cheeks behind the camera. My name is Kristel. This blog, much like my life, is a work in progress. I take pictures at events around town and I'm big on candid photos. Nice to meet you.
