There are few things I enjoy more in life than a craft fair filled with quality, handmade goods. As I’m looking forward to redecorating my new apartment and updating my wardrobe, I always find these types of events extremely inspiring.

Highlights from Maker Faire, Bay Area
This past weekend, Maker Faire descended upon the Bay Area (specifically the San Mateo Fairgrounds) for the fifth year in a row. With over 600 exhibitors, performers, and makers, in general, the festival, created by MAKE Magazine to “celebrate arts, crafts, engineering, science projects and the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) mindset,” attracted thousands of attendees of all ages and did not disappoint.

Silk Screen Printing Party
If I’ve said it once, I’ve probably said it dozens of times: Our friend Kelly is awesome. Besides being the co-author of one of the most creative DIY photo project books around, she also helps make Photojojo the go-to resource for most innovative photography tips and tutorials. Over the years of knowing her, I’ve discovered that Kelly possesses many other talents and she was kind enough to impart her wisdom on silk screen printing.
