USEC Bazaar


Two times a year we have the entirely delightful opportunity to not only make a little money through the sale of Carmencita Cards and the items we've developed, but importantly, to share our passion for what we do with a whole host of people. Saturday was the bazaar.

This year
, we added stick horses! We'd talked of doing them for a long time, remembering the fun the kids had with their stick horses when they were younger. Sara drew the pattern, we all shopped for fabric, and the horses were made for us by Norma and Carding, an older couple who live in the First Avenue Barrio. Norma sews the bags and aprons as well. While Norma does the horse heads, Carding peels, sands, and varnishes the bamboo used for the stick.

We had an outstanding day!
