A Holiday Alliday?

Hey There Alliday Admirers! Long time, no virtual talk!

We know you are eager to hear about future Alliday shows and we've finally made some decisions! We've received LOTS of inquiries about a holiday Alliday but due to numerous factors, we will not be producing a holiday Alliday this year. We will DEFINITELY be producing a show next year so no need to fret! We are also exploring moving the show closer to the holiday season! Thoughts?

No need to be sad though, there's other handmade shows to fill the Alliday void this fall! Make sure to apply to Indie Emporium and Deluxe OKC! These two shows are a good time and beyond! Lastly, take a trip to Norman on August 28th to check out Dustbowl Arts Market! While vendors have already been lined up, you can still go shop and listen to live music at this vivacious fest!

Best of the Booths

If you missed the first Alliday Show this past June, then you missed some spectacular booths! We encouraged our artists to think outside the box and boy did they! Our panel of judges had a difficult time choosing their three favorite but by the afternoon, they had finally narrowed it down and had their winners!

Our first place booth was Feather by Feather who created a light and airy booth, just like her feather creations!

Second place went to a trio of ladies, Pretta, who create functional and eye-catching bags and cork-boards.
Third place went to Treasures with Mom who created an entire room to shop in! Her handmade pendants were a hot commodity at the show and her booth was the place to be!

A huge congratulations to our winners and to everyone who created amazing booths! We can't wait to see more awesome booths in the future!

Alliday Artist: Meet Scarberry Faire!

Tell us a little about yourself and your business.
I’ve been drawing and painting my whole life. I’ve always painted for family and friends, and over the years I’ve gotten a lot of feedback that I should sell my work. Scarberry Faire is my first attempt at doing so!
What do you create?
I create wall art. I typically paint portraits of women. I go through phases where I find a particular genre or subject really interesting, and its usually reflected in the subjects I paint – lately I’ve been looking at a lot of Japanese fashion, which has inspired a few recent pieces.
What do YOU love about the products you make?
I love the self expression, and if something so personal can touch someone else, all the better!
Where do you find inspiration?
Everywhere! I love the look of comic books and cartoons. Growing up I remember drawing a lot of video game characters! I am also inspired by fashion, but the female form is where I tend to be inspired most.

The Alliday Show believes that everyday should be celebrated as a holiday! That being said, which holiday do you wish were everyday and why?
Hmmm….Valentines? The world always needs more love!
Will you be unveiling any new goods at Alliday?
Everything is new!

What are you most excited about for the upcoming Alliday Show?
I’m most excited to see how people react to my work and to meet other artists in the community. I have no idea what to expect, and it will be interesting to see how people respond.
