Well over 1,000 people and over 80 local vendors attended day one of the annual Shelby Valley Craft Festival Saturday. There was a little something for everyone at the festival from homemade beaded jewelry and soaps to every kind of homemade tasty treat imaginable. The festival is the largest fundraiser of the year for the Shelby Valley High School Band. With this fundraiser we use the funds to purchase new equipment, new band instruments and also new music. And this also covers the cost throughout the year. The band students are involved in different honor bands and we use the fundraised money to pay their expenses so they are not out of pocket for the parents or the students themselves. Now not only will this event give a boost to the Shelby Valley High School Band but also a boost to the local economy as people inside or local people spending money with local people. We have a wide variety of crafters. Most of them are local crafters that just craft at home and bring their stuff here to sale. But we also have local businesses. They are spending their money locally at home and most of it stays at home and hopefully they will stop at other places and stores on their way out. Due to the struggling economy, Manny have turned to crafting as a source of supplemental income. I make handmade reeds and I do the lantern swags. This is my third job so I work three jobs. I have an online wreath shop which is amazing Grace Wreath by Deb. I do eBay as well and then I have a daytime job. I make custom glass tile jewelry. It's all personalized. I can make photo images and take those and make them into necklaces, bracelets, keychains. If we didn't have these type of events then it's very hard to make extra money. Online is one way but I feel like you bring in more people to these events especially craft shows. The more vendors you have, the better off you're going to be able to sell your product.
