Piecemakers Craft Fairs

Saturday morning (or a magical Friday evening for the December fair) starts early with 100 of the finest hand crafts vendors in the United States, apple pie and the sweet music of the Piecemakers Singers. The food keeps people coming back show after show; then add to that, the live country music, story telling and a bounce house - it's an event for the whole family. The show at a glance, is a quick look at some of the craft vendors, visitors and friends.

Below, are pictures from the October and December fairs in 2009. If you are in the area, or can make plans to be, join us for the fairs for 2010! Click on any picture to enlarge.

December "Christmas Under the Lights" Fair 2009

There's nothing more nostalgic than the December "Christmas Under the Lights" fair on Friday evening - the lights from the booths sparkling in the dark, Christmas trees, street lamps along the aisles — and all the sights and smells of Christmastime.

An important part of the fair was the children's area called "ELFVILLE" - pictures with Santa, "Go Fishing" down the chimney to catch a prize, pedicab rides, and even a race track (eat your heart out, Indy 500)! At far right is an Elfville "employees" portrait :~)
			Piecemakers Christmas Carolers sang in Elfville and then strolled throughout the fair caroling.

Don Hull is a great emcee for Piecemakers events - Piecemakers Singers, featuring Mike Kolasinski on guitar, provides music while everyone enjoys the great food - oh, and don't forget the apple pie!

October Harvest Fair 2009
Many booths with all kinds of hand-crafted treasures to buy.



Piecemakers Singers, featuring Mike Kolasinski on guitar, provide music Saturday morning and all day Sunday, amidst dancers and some pretty scarey listeners!


Swingshift entertained Saturday afternoon along with the Cripple Creek Cloggers.

Lunch anyone?	Bounce House attendants :~)	Don Hull and Peggy Butler, special guest singers with the band.


Christmas Fair 2008
What a sight when the store is prepared for the Christmas fair.		Friday evening opening of the Christmas festival is magical with Christmas trees and street lamps down the aisles, as well as all the vendors booths lit for the holiday season.
	Friday evening is always special with a petting zoo, pony rides and bounce house for the children and anyone who is young at heart.
When the second day of the fair opened the weather was beautiful - great climate for shopping!		John Fletcher, our parking supervisor, keeps the fair traffic flowing and problem free.
	Have your picture taken with Santa or have your family photograph taken for this year's Christmas cards. Oh no, what's happening at the photo shoot?!
			Piecemakers Fairs - the place for great food and fellowship and music. Piecemakers Singers are playing at left, featuring Mike Kolasinski (in the Grinch hat and beard) on lead guitar.
A few more scenes from the 2008 "Christmas Under the Lights" Festival... Piecemakers Carolers stroll the fair and sing.		Ho,Ho, Ho! We even offer pedicab rides so you can rest your feet and enjoy a leisurely overview of the whole fair.
