The Paper Chase

In her words: Miscelena Handmade Papercrafts

Born into a family full of crafty (in the best sense!) women, my mom taught me the value of a hand-written greeting when I was barely able to form the letters. Our shared enthusiasm for papercrafts - handmade cards and other remembrances - is still going strong. I spend most of my weekdays working at a computer (albeit luckily as a commercial interior designer - a job I love!), and while I enjoy the connection and communication available via the internet, I believe our world will be a bit less beautiful if we lose the ability to touch one another with our own handwriting, our own words in ink on paper.

My handmade cards are *all* one-of-a-kind, never-another-one-like-it original assemblages - and most are blank inside for your thoughts, musings, comments and doodles.

Savage SnowDrop Art and Craft Fair

The Independent central Maryland artisans and crafters of Etsycrest invite you to join us for our mid-winter art and craft fair, Savage Snowdrop, on Saturday February 16, from 9 a.m to 3 p.m.

Join us at the historic Carroll Baldwin Hall at 9035 Baltimore street in Savage, MD for a leisurely day out.
The artisans will be on hand to demonstrate our favorite techniques and to show off our best designs.
Several of us will be holding demonstrations or a make- and -take craft. We're even having a Victorian cream tea (space limited) with homemade cakes, fruits and pastries served on vintage china.

Browse through the wares of 40 local artisans for that perfect item to herald Spring.
Try on warm hand knit hats. Select unique cards and paper goods for your social correspondence. Perk up your wardrobe with beautiful jewelry. Find that perfect accent for your home’s decor. Meet new artists in every medium, from fused glass artists to jewelers to yarn spinners.
Shop for one-of-a-kind items for a late Valentine’s, for Easter, Mother’s Day, weddings, house-warmings, and birthdays. What better way to welcome Spring?


Of course admission is free, but we do ask that strollers be left outside due to fire regulations. The site is wheelchair accessible.
