The Renegade Craft Fair in Brooklyn

Rewritable chalkboard pennants by Paper Satchel.

Although a tornado warning and its accompanying gusts of wind kept me from walking the entire fair this weekend, I still saw a fantastic variety of handmade goods. Renegade Brooklyn is one of my favorite shows to attend and exhibit at, and aside from the weather, this year did not disappoint.
