Hello Imaginary Friends,
Sometimes it’s really, Really, REALLY hard to find a gift for family and friends.
You want to find that WOW gift that is both unique and awesome; the gift that the person receiving will be ranting about for years.
My amazing wife knit me a Baker scarf for Christmas three years ago. It was her first knitting project. Not all of us can create stuff that is that awesome.
Here’s a secret for finding that most awesome gift: Check out your local convention’s artist alley. The things you’ll find there are awe inspiring.
Conventions
For those in Ottawa, this weekend is PopExpo. Most of the vendors will have lots of stock and some will even take commissions. (Come see us at tables 2214 & 2216) P.S. Kids under 12 get in for free and they have awesome stuff for kids!
If you don’t want to go to the convention, check out their website they almost always have a list of previous or future vendors.
Creative Ottawa Nerds
Here’s a list of amazing artists and artizans that took part in the second Craft Fair Hosted by Creative Ottawa Nerds.
You’ll find some great stuff and most of them will ship or deliver.
