LINCOLN CENTER CRAFT FAIR

We, by which I mean I, had the best time today at the Lincoln Center Art Fair. This used to be an ACC event and I don't know why it no longer is, but it's still a great show. They have the occasional booth with glass or ceramics, but it's essentially wearable art and jewelry. 

Several of the folks here are at the ACC show in San Francisco in August. Anyway what's interesting here is that they have such cool clothing items, which are ordinarily jackets. This one lady made these wonderful jackets out of neckties which had this perfect shape to them and didn't look anything like the boxy vest I made myself out of neckties.  But then again these jackets were $500. And for someone who never likes to wear a jacket that isn't made of fleece it seemed kind of ridiculous.

I was thinking of getting another pair of shoes from that woman I bought my wonderful boots from, but I found something else interesting before I got to her booth so I bought these instead

I also had a lot of fun looking at some sweaters that were made out of recycled cashmere, which I think she still bought by the bolt. It wasn't like it was made out of old cashmere sweaters, because she had way too many things that were exactly alike

And there were some cute earrings along the way, too.

Probably the best thing of all was that the weather cooperated, and although it was chilly, it did not rain today. They do this event again next weekend-- some vendors stay, some leave, some new ones show up. So it's the end of the day and I am relaxing in my new stuff.
