Finding Local Art Shows for Holiday Giving

When I'm not busy running my businesses, I love to quilt. It lets me play with color and create things that are simply what I can imagine ... and sometimes there are great surprises too.

Right now I'm way too busy getting new websites and businesses up and running ... so I visit local arts & crafts shows instead. This lets me find beautiful gifts and support local artists which is so important to keep our communities strong and vital.

One of my favorite artists in southern NH is Amalia Flaisher, who is also a member of 4 Walls 1 Roof. She creates the most amazing artwork out of glass, including a stained glass condo at my home.

She just sent out her holiday newsletter and I was thrilled to learn about an art show in Portsmouth, the Seacoast Fine Art & Gift Market on December 10-12 (you can find an amazing collection of art shows throughout the northeast by checking out the ones where Amalia will be exhibiting).

Here is a peek at her new ornaments for this holiday season
