We just discovered something cool - did you know that Etsy has a gift registry tool? So if you're getting married, or planning a baby-shower, or even a housewarming, you can make a fabulous wish list of lovely handmade stuff. You'll get beautiful handmade things, and small businesses will get...business! Awesome! It's a bit of a bear to work with, but this article can help walk you through the process. Happy planning your big event! :) CRB&S  SOOOOO excited to list these new salad server bowls with matching single serving bowls and paddles. Beautiful live edge walnut. Live Edge Salad Service  So, you've invested in an Instapot, and are committed to a healthy life style...why would you continue to use plastic cookware? Gross.

Looking forward to seeing you all out at the markets! Be well, Benjamin Headed to the Sioux Falls Sidewalk Art Festival this weekend. Logistics are tough for the artists, but I imagine that it's a lovely show. (Fingers crossed). Grateful to have been named a best artist for the past 3 shows - nice surprise after eight+ years on the circuit! Hoping that everyone enjoys the lovely fall's weekend. Defeat of Jesse James Day in hometown Northfield. Get excited! Be well, Benjamin   I am eager to be a part of www.siouxcityartcenter.org/artsplashArt Splash this weekend in Sioux City, SD! I plan on bringing lots of bowls and spoons.
I am continually amazing by how bountiful our summers in Minnesota are. I've been very fortunate to have some tree companies that have brought me some beautiful fallen trees - which I'm doing my best to turn. I've discovered a new technique to use the excess parts of the tree for my utensil making, which has been a brilliant development. My garden continues to bloom with enthusiasm. My pumpkins are threatening to take over the entire yard, no small feat. Tomatoes are starting to come on. And, blueberries have been a frequent treat. Looking forward to seeing many of you at the upcoming shows! Be well, Benjamin
I don't know about you all, but my summer is flying by! And, here we are approaching mid-August. I've been doing a fair bit of traveling this summer, with shows in Des Moines, Madison, but also spending time near home in Northfield and up in Minneapolis.
I'll be at Riverwalk again on Saturday, followed by Duluth and then Austin. Looking forward to seeing many friends at the shows. Be well, Benjamin |
