Sweet William Market

Sweet William Market was this past Saturday and it was a beautiful day. Held in Stapleton, It seems we really lucked out with the weather. The previous markets fell on some swelteringly hot days.
The day was a bit slow but we met some good people and the creatures were played with by packs of rabidly fun children on numerous occasions. Good times. Now on to the pictures.

Here is a great shot of Denise modeling in our new tent set up. Notice the keen handmade "WTS" banner thwarting the suns rays behind her. Although you can not tell in this picture, the table display, to the left, sports some fancy baskets "overflowing" with Sumis and LockJaws. Plus the "WTS Tower" is look particularly smashing. The "piece de resistance" is the brand new "WTS Cubby-Comb", (I just made that name up..right now)! Let's go in for a closer look.
Ah, The "WTS Cubby-Comb". Where to begin? Well, its made from only the finest cardboard concrete tubing mold and lovingly spray painted with only the finest colors. Everything is held together with shiny wing nuts, washers and bolts. A lot of people were asking us about it and that is no lie. The "Cubby-Comb" needs a little fine tuning but its function and appeal are straight A's. WTS might become cardboard cabinet makers yet!
Come see us next weekend: October 1st, at the Horseshoe Handmade Market to gaze upon the new "WTS Cubby-Comb" and to say Hi. Its the last Horseshoe of the season so come on out!

Craftin' Carnival

Like, Whoa. WTS Creatures has been jet setting around the globe and making more of your favorite plush creatures. "Busy" is the word i'm looking for. The one(1). The two(2). and it don't stop.
The past weekend was Denver's very first "Craftin' Carnival". WTS Creatures was lucky enough to join in on this nice event filled with laughter, free cotton candy and many people eating free cotton candy. Lets go to the slides to get a feeling of what was experienced:

the glorious signage proudly displayed on Work Brite's exterior.
Denise getting ready to tell anyone who will listen about WTS Creatures. Notice our new handmade banner? Yeah its new and we made it.
The view of the room. A small but eclectic group of crafty crafters and artists.
Different angle of the room. Here you see Zshanna Kristoff (next to the women in black). A very nice person and talented artist. She draws animals, ladys and hands very well. To the left you can see the delicious free cotton candy.
Free cotton candy and the ladyz who make it.

We were between the free cotton candy and a both that sold middle school kids art. All the kids showed up to see their art and then noticed the free cotton candy. It was all over from there. This picture doesn't do the the mayhem or mob action justice that overcame the cotton candy machine. I saw one small girl eat 9 cotton candy cones. Her mouth was crusted with blue sugar. I think she has diabetes now:(
Anyway. WTS Creatures had a great time! We met new and interesting people and artists as usual and we got to see children gorge themselves on spun sugar. Till next time. Beep Boop Bop Bee Boop.
