This virtual boutique was created by Macaroni Kid Louisville East publisher Tammy Gnagy and Craft Fair organizer Julie Engelhardt. For the past four years she has organized the holiday boutique fundraiser for the Eastern High School Band in Middletown.
When asked about their boutique, she had this to say:
We have over 50 vendors in our group. They’re based throughout Kentucky, and in Tennessee, Missouri, Indiana, Minnesota, Arizona and California. We even have one in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada who will ship to the US.The array of items that will be available is amazing. We have wood workers. We have jewelry makers. There are people selling clothes, candles, resin art, soap, wine, purses, food, toys. We have two local published authors. The list is incredible.
I personally made a purchase from from one of their vendors (local to Louisville) called This and That by Bobbie. My son is *obsessed* with Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and I saw a little bag he could fill with random nic nacs.
The shipping was super quick, & I now have his present tucked away for Santa to surprise him with. I loved that I could purchase safely online, support a local business, and he has a one of a kind gift! :-) For more information on This and That By Bobbie, Check out their website!
