Have you heard of Alliday?  If you live in or around Tulsa then I hope so!  But if not, just know that it is going to be a big and awesome event this year!  December 17th out at the fairgrounds you can come and knock all that last minute holiday shopping off your list and simultaneously support your local and handmade community.  There is a huge group of fantastic artists this year, so plan ahead and plan on coming!! Can't wait that long?  Saturday November 5th, a week from tomorrow, a bunch of local crafters and I will be set up at the Jenks Church Fall 2011 Craft Fair.  The Jenks Church is on Elwood between 111th and 121st, just down from Perryman Ranch.  We'll be open 9am - 4pm so definitely try and stop by.
