The Little Craft Show

-celebrating handmade since 2011-

My work is created with the intention of being used and enjoyed. I thoughtfully hand-form each piece, from raw clay through decorating and firings, thinking of how one will use it. Clay tells a story, and it's one I am happy to be a part of and share with you! Conway,AR Website Instagram Facebook

  • Although the rain chased us indoors we still had an incredible time on @mountsequoyah for our 2nd annual #HandmadeSupperClub! 50 beautiful guests filled the tables and enjoyed a thoughtful meal from Executive Chef Justus Moll! Everyone got to keep their handcrafted place settings and the music by @serranotorres_cellist was the icing on the cake! We met so many wonderful supporters of The Little Craft Show and can’t wait to do this again!! . . . A HUGE THANK YOU to @glamrebeltinyhouse, @auxarcnative, @perrodin, & @obrienoutpost for showing up at the right time with huge smiles and ready to help us move EVERYTHING inside. What a phenomenal team effort that we mostly laughed our way through.🙏🏼
  • Today’s the day!! We’re taking over “Vesper Point” at @mountsequoyah for our second annual #HandmadeSupperClub! Each of our guests will be taking home their entire HANDMADE place setting including one of these bundle-dyed linen napkins, a hand turned wooden plate, a ceramic bud vase, and a few other treats! Also, the beautiful @serranotorres_cellist will be filling the night sky with his unforgettable cello vibes. We can’t wait to meet all of our guests tonight for this SOLD OUT event!
  • Let’s do a little math: If tickets are $85 each but BOGO until midnight, that means you can get two tickets, which includes dinner, drinks, live music, plus a hand-spun wooden plate, ceramic-glazed bud vase, and original hand-dyed linen napkin to take home for two people for only $42.50 each. (WHAT?!) Handmade is more our thing, but we gotta admit: that math looks pretty good. Get your tickets at the link in our bio before they’re gone, friends!
  • TODAY ONLY: Tickets to next weekend’s Handmade Supper Club are buy one, get one free when you use code BOGOPLEASE at check-out. Treat Dad, surprise your partner, or have an unforgettable night with your gal pals; tickets are only two for $85 through midnight tonight (a $170+ value). Tickets include a multi-course meal prepared by Chef Justus Moll, drink pairings, live music by cellist @serranotorres_cellist, plus you’ll get to take home your entire keepsake, handmade place setting. Come spend the evening breaking bread and meeting new friends with us at the second Handmade Supper Club — we can’t wait to welcome you and host you!
  • We can’t wait to toast all our dinner guests at next weekend’s Handmade Supper Club. (Have we mentioned, too, that dessert is mixed berry lime shortcake with lavender cream?) There’s still time to join us — grab tickets for you & your guest at our website. Cheers! #fayettevillear

HISTORY

The Little Craft Show was founded in 2011 as a fun, “little” event for us to sell our handmade products with our closest friends. We had a small venue, a handful of crafty friends, and a few extra spaces to fill. The response was amazing. TLCS is now Arkansas’ most talked about indie craft show that's celebrated for our refreshing atmosphere, enthusiastic vendors, and high quality handmade goods. We were even ranked as one of the top EIGHT craft shows in the nation by Country Living Magazine.
