hiyoo,

just wondering if anyone is going to maker faire or participating in bazarre bizaar. it's my dad's bday saturday so i most likely will only go sunday but i'm going by myself :[ so it'd be cool to maybe run into a craftista haha. this will be my first year going so i'm really excited. i just looked at the schedule http://makerfaire.com/bayarea/2007/schedule/all/ and there are so many things i want to do and see and learn! ahhh!

i went last year. didn't spend much time outside the bizarre bazaar tho as my companion wasn't feeling well. thought about it this year, but can't leave my kids elsewhere this time and just can't justify spending a total of $25 in admission alone..... have fun! i got some good stuff at it last time so i'm a little bummed. wish BB would do a show elsewhere minus the insanely high admission.

i hear tell there is going to be a stand alone Bay Area Bazaar Bizarre during the holidays this year!

There is indeed going to be a San Francisco BazBiz! It's going to be held December 15th at the County Fair Building in Golden Gate Park. Jamie Chan of MaryJane's Attic and other members of the San Francisco Craft Mafia, including myself, have already begun work on it. I'm very excited about it, especially after the San Mateo one. Charging people to go shopping and to park definitely affected some sales!
