Winterfest 2021 ~A Wonderful Weekend ~Here’s my Report

Winterfest 2021 is now a memory…a very good memory.
We had so many friends stop by our booth to say Hello.
The event didn’t happen last year due to the Pandemic,
so folks were ready to take in the festivities…
Local friends, Live Music, Good Food, and Holiday Shopping!

The arena opened for set up at 1pm.
I spent my last morning at home making
some finishing touches and pricing items.
This Snowman is another of my favorite items.
Once I add eyes to my creations,
they just show their true personality!

First, we set up our tent and display stands.
Hubby brings his power tools and does most of the work.
I’m just there to hold stuff while he’s using his drill,
making sure the shelves are secure and steady.

Here’s how it looked three hours later,
with all of our creations on display.

In the morning, we just need to turn on the lights,
and put our cash in the register drawer.
Hubby had plenty of time to chat with the other Wood Turners,
while I made sure everything was just so.

For those of you out-of-town friends that could not attend,
I promised plenty of photos.

Hubby’s candle holders and wine bottle necklaces shared a shelf.

His bottle openers were one of our best sellers.
They make a great stocking stuffer for your favorite bartender.

The Foot Rollers are a good stocking stuffer
for someone who is on their feet all day.

There’s my favorite new Santa holding his Cinnamon Stick Tree.
He’s hanging out with the Santa created with Vintage Wool.

Who remembers that story behind these
decorative cutting boards?

Lots of folks asked about the Muddlers…a handy tool for
those who like to create fancy cocktails or desserts.


Tins are the perfect gift for a teacher or secret pal.
I loved this story on Saturday…a young woman purchased
one for her sister. They were so poor when growing up
that they couldn’t afford to buy gifts, so they
painted cans to give to their family.
She truly found the perfect gift for her sister this year!

The Owls and Turkeys got a lot of attention.
Those burlap stockings are the perfect size
for some cash or a gift card to hang on the tree.

There’s something for everyone.

One of our last sales of the weekend was a Grandpa
who purchased some ornaments with his granddaughter
to take home and hang on their tree.

Another sweet story that made me smile.


At the end of the day, we packed the rest up
and brought it all home.
This week you will find them listed in my Etsy Shop…
still looking for their forever home.

I hope you enjoyed this Virtual Visit
to our Tins and Treasures Winterfest booth.

And for those of you that stopped by,
we enjoyed our visit and appreciate your business.

Take care,
~Natalie
