I love the @northashevilletailgatemarket ! Every Saturday April through November from 8-12 it’s like a mini festival where you can shop for your weekly groceries and fine arts and crafts. I’m there with my #faeriemade soaps and body care and my #faeriefabrications handwoven items. ** * * #828isgreat #avlmade #asheville #ncmade #madeinasheville #madeinnorthcarolina #shoplocal #makersgonnamake

Yesterday was lovely, but a bit breezy. Took 3 of us to get the tent set up so it wouldn’t blow away. Sales were good and everyone was in a celebratory mood. I like my local @westashevilletailgate market. I’ve been vending there at least 15 years! * * * #tailgate #market #shoplocal #828isgreat #asheville #handmade #local #northcarolina #faeriemade

I know at some point we may have spring, but i just finished up these pretty scarves. Primary colors are greens and gold and blues. One has a black pattern 8 inches by 75 in long and the other in a lovely gold/taupe at 8 inches by 71. They are all tencel which means silky and drapey and delicious. $90 each not inc shipping. * * The taupe one has been sold. I’ve done my best to take the pic in natural light. * * * #handmade #handweaving #weave #weaversofinstagram #weaving #handwoven #tencel #scarf #scarves #silky #beautiful fiber #fiberart #yarn #makersgonnamake #faeriefabrications #avlmade #avlcraft #madeinasheville #ncmade #madeinnorthcarolina #madeinusa #womanownedbusiness #womanowned

1/2 of the warp for some towels. I’ll make 8 of these. Can’t wait to see how they turn out. * * #handmade #handweaving #weave #weaversofinstagram #weaving #handwoven #cotton #kitchen #towels #kitchentowel #fiber #fiberart #yarn #makersgonnamake #faeriefabrications #avlmade #avlcraft #madeinasheville #ncmade #madeinnorthcarolina #madeinusa #womanownedbusiness #womanowned

The love of my life heart dog, Temperance. We are both lucky we have each other. ❤️💚💜💙 * * * She has Addison’s disease and is heading into remission from immune mediated thrombocytopenia. She’s cost me thousands of dollars and hours of anguish. * * * She’s counter surfed and stolen handwoven towels to chew on. She ate her dog sister Fleur’s championship award! She chewed up my favorite tarot deck. * * * She’s also the funniest dog on the planet. She makes me laugh daily and she loves unconditionally. If everyone could have a dog like her, they’d count themselves lucky. * * #heartdog #loveofmylife #dog #poodle #standardpoodle #dogsofinstagram

Market was good today! I sold 4 of my handwoven towels so I felt okay buying a few ounces of this local alpaca to spin! 😍 * * #alpaca #roving #spinning #spinner #makersgonnamake #yarn #yarnaddict #shoplocal #northcarolina #asheville #828isgreat

Quick shot of some pretty towels off the loom. I had a blast making these. I’ll try to take better pics tomorrow. All cotton and $25 each plus shipping (unless your local and want to pick up). Loading up in the car for the North Asheville Tailgate Market tomorrow.

Calendula balm all labeled and being shrink wrapped today. This is such a amazing salve for your cuts and scrapes. And on tattoos? Oh yeah. I infuse olive and rice bran oils With calendula flowers. And to that I add Shea butter, cocoa butter, and beeswax. A little bit of lavender and Teatree essential oil makes this an excellent salve for you to use. * * #natural #handmade #salve #herbal #calendula #naturalhealing #essentialoils #faeriemade #plantmedicine #madeinusa #madeinasheville #ncmade #madeinnorthcarolina #asheville #tattoo #tattoohealing #tattoobalm #makersgonnamake

Making rolags and batts on my blending board with my friend Mary. Can’t wait to spin them up.

Morning edits of my perfume labels. Drinking coffee. Using my 2007 MacBook because it has the software I need and I use only for editing labels. This sweet computer keeps going on and on and on. My pc laptops were only good for a year or so. * * #apple #macbook #workfromhome #faeriemade #selfemployed #makersgonnamake (at Faerie Made)

My terrier, Lily Monster, just had a roll in the leaves and decided to bring them back to the porch. When the weather is warm I spend most of my free time out here “porch sitting”. It’s right off my bedroom and it’s one of my favorite places to be. * * #teatime #terrier #backporch #asheville #springtime #smallhouse #happy #dog #dogsofinstagram #cairnterrier #828isgreat #westasheville #home
