3 Dog Design Studios
A little bit about me…. I am 50 something and I love life. My goal is to have fun every single day of my life – I am in control – I have no excuse not to! I have been a creator since I was a child. I have painted, sketched, quilted, glued, beaded and sewed almost everything! I even painted …my car once…my dad was not impressed! I am not afraid to try anything and my new passion are these textile bowls. Each one is entirely different from the other. They ‘bloom’ in front of me as I sew them. Wrapping the rope is therapeutic for me…and play time for the cats! The dogs don’t really get it. If you don’t see a color you want – I will build it for you! Happy Shopping! https://www.etsy.com/shop/3dogsdesignstudio |

Bob's Man Cave Art
I started making metal art just as a hobby. I would put the pieces in my yard and people would drive by real slow. When I would have yard sales, people would comment and tell me I should sell the pieces. Then a benefit came up for a young lady from Waverly who was diagnosed with cancer. I made 2 Minions to donate to their Chinese Auction. They each collected over $150.00! I was ecstatic! My whole family loves to donate to various charities. My wife and daughter coupon and donate most of the items to Catholic Charities in Nichols, NY. I made another Minion and sold it on eBay. That minion is in Missouri! Ever since then, my family and I have been going to craft fairs and flea markets and have had a lot of fun! It's a great way to spend a lot of quality time together as well! I love talking about my pieces just as much as I love building them. It's relaxing to me. Some nights after working 8 to 10 hours a day I go out to my garage until 9 or 10 at night. I am known to stop and pick up metal alongside the road. My motto is Reuse, Repurpose, Recycle so if there's metal that people want to throw out, I'll get it. We also go to auctions and buy stuff people don't want. Tables full of various tools and household supplies like silverware and bakeware. I can turn a washing machine a bunch of various different metal art pieces including a beautiful flower! One that doesn't require any water or care and will never die! It may rust, but that just adds to the beauty! My animals are the biggest hit of all! I have had numerous special order pieces in remembrance of people's pets that have passed on. I also do the All Paws for a Cause vendor fair in Binghamton in September sponsored by the YWCA that benefits Breast Cancer Prevention. This year will be my 4th year doing it and its the most fun of all fairs we go to! Bob Stefanik, Sr. Facebook: Bob's Man Cave Art |

Mark Detrick Woodworking
As a woodturner, I strive to create new and novel work using a wide variety of techniques and tools, and to continually experiment with new processes and materials to produce unique high quality products. I attempt to maximize the use of natural products in my work however, I realize that natural materials are an imperfect medium. Natural materials have flaws and faults that sometimes make them unusable for many projects however decaying wood, live edges, cracks, knots, voids and other defects can add beauty and character to a piece, especially when you emphasize the defects. Many of my works use colored resin as a design element, a structural element, and as a way to emphasize the defects in the materials. The resin provides both color and textural contrast to the natural materials, that can both surprise and delight the senses. Each piece I create is a unique experience for me and hopefully, for the viewer. Located in Sayre, Pennsylvania, you can find me at art shows throughout northern Pennsylvania and the Finger Lakes area of New York. Recent Awards: * Best in Class - 2016 Canandaigua Christkindl Market, Canandaigua New York * Best in Class - 2017 Athens Artsfest, Athens PA * Best in Class - 2017 Letchworth Arts and Crafts Show, Letchworth State Park, Mount Morris New York * Best in Class - 2017 Canandaigua Christkindl Market, Canandaigua New York Website: www.detrickwoodworking.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/detrickwoodworking Email: mark@detrickwoodworking.com |

Kurt's Making Whoopie
With a love of baking, a corny joke and an impish smile, Kurt's Making Whoopie was born in 2011. Originally a way for a father and son to have some bonding time, it has become a staple of craft fairs and events around the Valley area. Kurt likes to make whoopie everywhere! The business started out of my home kitchen with the help of my dad and the goal of being an online business. Little by little, the word spread locally and I was invited to join small craft fairs. As the whoopie spread, I added a commercial kitchen to back of my house in 2013 and became the officially licensed and inspected Kurt's Making Whoopie. More shows, bigger shows, lots of orders and now small fundraisers now keep us baking night and day. Although Dad no longer helps with baking, he checks in to ensure it is being done to his standards. With a group of loyal elves and many long nights, we have been continuing to expand the line of whoopie offerings and whoopie availability. In the future, we plan on total world whoopie domination! Join the Whoopie-Nation, become a Whoopster and "Make WHOOPIE everyday!" Website: kurtsmakingwhoopie.com Facebook: Kurt's Making Whoopie |

Miller's Homemade Soaps
Barb Miller, the owner of Miller's Homemade Soaps has been in the business of making soaps since 2006. It all started as a way to fill her table in early spring at the local farmers' market, before the vegetables came in. She enjoyed making soap so much that when the market closed down for the season she continued to refine her craft, perfecting recipes and adding to her list of products for sale. Her latest offerings include soaps, lip balms, lotions, pH balanced shampoo bars and natural deodorants. For our 4-legged friends, she sells a dog hot spot salve, paw balm and a shampoo bar made especially for them. |

The Country Easel
Hello, my name is Donna S. Miller and I am a self-taught artist. My love of art started at a very young age. I remember dabbling in various forms as a child and teenager over the years. It wasn’t until after I was newly married and stated that “I’ve always wanted to learn how to paint” and my husband replied “what’s stopping you”, that i picked up a paint brush and painted my first painting. I have not put my paint brush down for any length of time since. I have been painting for 26+ years. I paint mainly in acrylics on watercolor paper and canvas. I also enjoy working with mixed media that includes pen, ink, colored pencils and hand painted paper. Wood burning and painting gourds are also something I enjoy. My work can be found for sale in Owego NY at the Gallery 41 on Lake Street. I also open my house the weekend following Thanksgiving through the middle of December offering my artwork for sale. You can also find my work throughout the year selling at various art shows and through my Facebook page The Country Easel. Each July my artwork can be found entered at the Troy Fair, Alparon Park in Troy Pa. through the Fine Arts Council of Troy. When not painting or creating I enjoy traveling, camping with my husband while watching and photographing any one of our six grandchildren playing sports year round. I also enjoy sitting on my back porch on the porch swing reading or listening to the sounds of nature. I hold to the concept that God holds us responsible for our lives and what we do with them. He has given us a multitude of gifts and endless resources…therefore let not your talents be hidden. E-mail : thecountryeasel@frontier.com Facebook: The Country Easel Phone# 607-483-0474 |
