Our Annual Holiday Craft Fair will be held earlier this year, on November 19th. This is the Saturday before Thanksgiving. We are hoping an earlier date will increase community participation. Everything else remains the same: time 10-3, location Fellowship Hall at UUFH.
We have space for 18 vendors to sell handmade crafts appropriate for the gift giving season. As in the past , we will feature baked goods, pottery, jewelry, photography, woodworking, knitted goods (get those mittens and scarves for the Giving Tree!) woven items, donated Christmas decorations, collectibles and treasures just to name a few! Vendors who are UUFH members or friends receive free tables and donate 20% or more of proceeds to the fund raiser. Outside vendors are welcome to purchase tables at a reasonable price. The quality and variety of our crafts has always been outstanding! This event is a major fund raiser to support the mission of UUFH.
We already have 12 tables spoken for but we still have room for six more vendors. Please call Barbara Eck 595-4235. You must have a NC sales and use tax ID number (or be willing to get one). Past experience has shown that items priced under $25 sell best and the $5-20 range does best of all. Help us get the word out to others in the community to come join us as vendors and/or shoppers!
We are looking for donations of good quality new, or very gently used, treasures, collectibles, and holiday decorations to sell at our Treasure Table once again this year. Remember, please, this is not a yard sale. We need items that buyers will view as potential gifts for giving or decorations to be used in their homes. Donations may be dropped at the UUFH office during regular business hours where tax deduction forms are also available upon request.
