07:15 pm - NOCM newsletter: Mafia Mamas

Happy Mother's Day to all you mamas out there!

Since the May edition of the Crescent City Craft Market falls on Mother's Day, we'll have some great discounts for mothers only, as well as a chance for one lucky mom to win a special prize from the NOCM.

The following weekend, the New Orleans Craft Mafia will one of the many vendors at Bazaar Bizarre/Maker Faire in San Mateo, CA, on May 19 and 20.

Mallory Whitfield, of dismantled designs and Miss Malaprop, won an Etsy "Upcycling Contest" and the prize was a booth at the Maker Faire! You can read details about Mallory's entry here.

For those who don't know, Etsy is a great online marketplace similar to eBay that features nothing but handmade items. All of the NOCM members have shops on Etsy, and some of them sell Etsy-only items! Check out the NOCM Member List to get links to our Etsy stores.

Mallory will be accompanied on her trip by her mom, who will help man the NOCM booth. Thanks, Mrs. Whitfield!
