The Handcrafter's Barn

My Friend Koleen has rented a booth at the Handcrafter's Barn in N. Conway, NH. She invited my friend Sherry and me to put some of our handcrafted items in the booth as well. We took a ride up last Thursday to add more items. I was unable to get a complete photo of the booth ~ I needed to take several in order to get everything as space is tight! The booth is 6 feet wide; 2 feet deep and 8 feet tall! Koleen has put in quite a lot of her small quilts, wallhangings and table runners, plus several wool candle mats and table toppers. Sherry has contributed her famous "Wool" mittens and I put in several of my purses. You would be amazed at how much stuff you can fit in this space!   
As I mentioned, I took several photos ~ the top one is of the left side of the booth ~ this one is the center.
This one is of the right showcasing my purses. Not everything at the Handcrafter's Barn is hand crafted ~ some are factory manufactured. So, Koleen decided to add some of her puzzles and signs that she had left over from when she used to be a vendor at local quilt shows.
This is the top right of the booth ~ you can see some of Sherry's mittens hanging up  and more of Koleen's quilts on the top shelf.
This is the left top of the booth ~ there is quite a variety of items for sale!  The Handcrafter's Barn is located on Route 16 in North Conway, NH.  It is huge!! I'm not sure how many individual booths there are, but there are 3 floors with a wide variety of both handcrafted and factory manufactured items for sale!
It is a popular tourist stop.  Koleen rented this booth in July and has already had some sales, including several pair of Sherry's mittens!  Imagine that ~ people buying wool mittens in July!
