Chrissy Wilbee from the Boh Bon Soap Company sent me some pics from the Detroit Urban Craft Fair, which was held the previous weekend in Detroit obviously. Chrissy was one of over 65 vendors who participated in the event and I gotta tell ya I wish 1) that I had friends in Detroit & 2) that I had one incredibly large disposable income!

The Detroit Urban Craft Fair 2008 at The Fillmore Theater.

Boh Bon Soap Company wares and Chrissy too! I love Boh Bon soaps, I use them every single day! Completely all-natural, they would make really great stocking stuffers…hint, hint. (Picture on the left from hd ducf flickr’s page). My favorite is the Earth Mama Goat Soap. Made with goat’s milk and rhassoul clay, it’s super soothing to my sensitive Irish-girl skin.

Real bark cuffs from Bettula! Art and paper goods from All Things Grow

Zebula makes really adorable clutches and other accessories. Felt pincushions and brooches from The Proper Peach.
Thanks for sharing, Chrissy!

Excely offers jewelry for all styles made from vintage and new jewelry components. I like the big chunky styles and even own a few pieces myself. I’ve also purchased some Excely designs as gifts, but sssshhh…let’s keep that a secret for now until after the holidays!
