What more can a girl ask for?
I visited the Richmond Arts Festival downtown this afternoon and discovered two new stores I am very excited about: Main Street Beads and Unwind Yarn Shop. The best part: they are right across the street from my office, so I can pop over anytime.
I have been making jewelry for about a year and 1/2 now and am always looking for good places to buy new beads. They are even going to try and find me titanium earing wire. It is great to have a cute little bead shop right across the street from my office. I also learned to knit when I was still living in Blacksburg and am anxious to relearn and maybe even knit myself a new pocketbook. I signed up at both shops to be notified about upcoming classes.
The festival itself was nice. I was surprised how many people I ran into that I knew. I even got to help Hopi pick yarn colors for her baby blanket! It was a great feeling seeing so many familiar faces. I feel like I am finally becoming a part of the Richmond community outside of the seminary.
