Texas Avenue Makers Fair 2

Last Saturday my sisters and I went to the Texas Avenue Makers Fair. I am thrilled that there is a movement to renew Texas Avenue! Check out the the Texas Avenue Community Association for more info. "Let the 'nue begin!"

Texas Avenue Makers Fair

This past Saturday, on the corner of Texas Avenue and Common Street in downtown Shreveport, vendors lined the covered pavilion with handmade crafts, clothing, jewelry, and southern food. My favorite moment was seeing a kid (no older than 13) selling duct tape notebooks all by himself! My mom bought earrings made out of sterling silver and bullet shells, I entered a raffle to win a 1960s bike, and Les and I shared the best fried crawfish ball ever. I feel so inspired from the experience that maybe I will even make something from my 'j'adore diy' board on pinterest this week.

You can't beat outings with family!
