Keep It Local Shop Locally
I’m starting a keep it local campaign I believe supporting local business by shopping locally is important to any community and even more in Ketchikan. Ketchikan is a busy little town in the summer but once winter hits and the cruise shops leave a lot of the shops board up their windows and leave for the winter. Etsy is also supporting their customers to shop local online and support the region, state and town you live in with their shop local search function.
The first person I would like to feature is my Etsy friend Sarah and her Etsy shop Bodhi Handmade. Sarah also lives in Ketchikan, Alaska and sells her clothing and accessories at some of the same local festivals as I do Winter Arts Festival and the summer Blueberry Arts Festival. At the last Winter Arts Festival I bought one of her Yoga-Top skirts and LOVE it!! It goes with everything I dress it up and I dress it down by throwing on a pair of Xtratufs as seen in the picture below. I will be buying another one of her skirts soon!

Xtratufs Rain Boots AKA Ketchikan Sneakers
Jake and I took a early spring hike last night to one of my
favorite places on earth Carlanna Lake. I spent many summer days
up at this lake which is about a 20 minute hike from my childhood house.
We picked blueberries, camped, swam all day and search for salamanders for pets.
This photo is part of my iPhone fine art series to

SLUGS and Blueberries
Every year the highlight of the summer is Ketchikan’s Blueberry Festival.
The festival showcases over 100 booths selling their handmade goods. You can also enjoy the Slug race, which this year I donated the prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place the winners received an adopt a SLUG button and a small Tongass the SLUG stuffed animal. Tongass is only available in person at Ketchikan local festivals. Of course you can’t have a blueberry festival without a blueberry pie eating contest, Battle of the Bands, trivia contest and the Great Blueberry Race. The blueberry weekend started off on Friday with the juried art show I summited this photo.
This Blueberry Arts Festival was extra special for me. I had my BFF/Graphic designer Raquel Mayer (AKA Rocky) fly up from Seattle to help me. She was my number one SLUG seller. She designed my NEW “HOLD THE SALT” SLUGS sweat shirt which we sold out of! She really went over the top creating all kind of promotional stuff for me, Rocky designed a blueberry SLUG button and I added a little green leaf we handed them out with every purchase. Rocky handed painted my table cloth with my logo on it the night before the festival Oliver one of my cats also wanted to be part of the creative process and decided to walk across the table cloth and wet paint it just adds to the charm I think. As a surprise she also took some of my SLUGS photos and made them in to large posters which we hang around my booth.
Can’t forget about Jacob my BF he also made this blueberry festival special he was my roadie and cashier I guess he didn’t trust two art school kids with the cash box. Even my Mom pitched in on this blueberry festival all the way from California she made my one of kind made with LOVE "WithTheRain" Xtratuf banner with SLUGS .
The status for the festival:
I made 150 SLUGS fleece boot liners and sold 134
I made 35 Large Tongass the SLUG stuffed animal and sold all but 2
I made 30 Small Tongass the SLUG stuffed animal and sold out
I order 4 “HOLD THE SALT” sweat shirts and solid out
This was the best blueberry ever!
It was the nicest weather of the whole summer, not a rain cloud in sight.

You will notice throughout this series I'm a little obsessed with two things rust and turquoise and if I can get this color combinations in a photo it makes it that much better. This photo of SLUGS is one of my favorite because of the turquoise and rust combo.
