Craft sales! (and delicious jam…)

The wonderful and deliciously talented Margaux Carson reminded us earlier this week to check out some of Ottawa’s great winter craft sales happening this weekend.

So, true to the theme of this blog – we headed out to the Shang Winter Craft Fair at the Shanghai Restaurant on 651 Somerset.

We saw some familiar faces (including local artist Karina Bergmans!) and picked up some delicious jams and other treats from Margaux.

Check out how busy it was:

Margaux Carson is a fantastic chef, and the person behind Ottawa food blog Kitchen Graffiti.

Christmas is right around the corner and this weekend is your last chance to pick up some hand-crafted, locally made goodies.

Craft fairs are an excellent way to pick up some unique gifts and support local entrepreneurs – so make time to come see us this weekend! Yours truly will be spending this Sunday, December 12th, selling jams, sauces and sweet treats at the Shang Winter Craft Fair at the Shanghai Restaurant at 651 Somerset between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Just down the street, Raw Sugar Cafe is also putting on a craft sale this Sunday between 12 and 4 p.m – and since you’ll be in the area, you should check out the Yule Craft and Spirit Faire going on at the Bronson Centre Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.

The Locavore Artisan Food Fair is also going on this weekend featuring favourite food vendors like Art-Is-In Bakery and Stone Soup Foodworks.
