Vendor Spotlight!

We’re excited to welcome Kim Lindfield to our October Craft Fair! Kim is a talented crafter who pours her creativity and passion into making handcrafted jewelry featuring semi-precious stones, metals, and unique beads that inspire her designs.

Her beautiful metal earrings are made using a special technique called metal weaving, where she twists craft wire and interlaces it between strips of sheet metal to create one-of-a-kind, lightweight pieces that shine with originality.

Kim is looking forward to meeting new people and sharing her love of crafting—be sure to stop by her table and see her stunning creations in person!
