Last summer I heard about this event called "Silver Bella" in Omaha Nebraska, that is going on as I type! Kaari (Meng) and I talked about it while in France, who is teaching there. And after a quick email from her on Tuesday, I have decided to take a road trip and be her assistant!
It's this paper-crafting event that started small about 4 years ago, that got the attention of Country Living Magazine, and now it's this big deal. People from all over go to Omaha, of all places, to meet and take workshops from very talented, well known in their field, artists. There are vendors selling their wares, and fun themes every year, like prom dresses and aprons. Lot's of packing of supplies and kits and making crafty gifts for other participants is going on as well. Not being one for crowds, I am a little hesitant, but hey it's creative so it's right up my alley, right?


It's so exciting to see that crafting is gaining popularity, and super cool to have been a part of it all these years. It was not easy to find but here is a link to the official Silver Bella Blog. I also found some others who are going to it by Googling "Silver Bella". I will take my camera so I can share some behind the scenes shots.
Gotta hit the road!
