‘Tis the season for potlucks

December 6, 2010 by Minnie Leave a Comment

I think everyone knows that moment of trying to decide how to transport your potluck offering. Do you stuf it in a paper bag and worry about the lid sliding off or the bag breaking? Do you carry it in your hands like it is a precious gift only to then have to balance it on the passenger seat and have it slide off when that jerk ahead of you stops too suddenly?

Sounds like we all need a potluck pal!

Last year I met Alena at a craft fair in Oakland and was really impressed with the quality of her work. She makes pot carries out of lovely sturdy fabric with hard bottoms so that carrying your pot or pan is sturdy and on flat surface. This would make a really nice gift!

You can take a look at her Potluck Pals here and then contact her directly ([email protected]) to order.

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
