So many products, so little time. We're just a month away from our first market of the season! The East Grand Forks Arts and Crafts Fair is the first weekend in October at the middle school in EGF.

This year we upgraded to all xTool lasers. We have 3 now. The , , and . The speed and efficiency of their machines and software have allowed me to really expand my skills and product line. I've included some pics of our newest items in this post.

I'll tag our shows here so you can click on the one nearest you and get all the information.

Our xTool lasers cut and engraved all the wood, leather, acrylic and cork used in this product. It makes ex*****on of a complicated project manageable. See this and other book coasters at our upcoming shows this fall and holiday season.

This one is designed to be a customer favorite. It doesn't hurt that we live in Sunflower country. I used all my xTool lasers to make this fun book coaster.

- Just a quick note that I am traveling and out of the office starting this evening - September 4th. When I return, it will be 30 days out from our first Q4 show.

As in past years, that means I will not be taking any custom orders until 1/2/2027. Anyone that has an order in with me now is good, just nothing new.

With that out of the way, enjoy the rest of your August, and I can't wait to see you all starting in October!!!!!!

All the best,

These book coasters are so fun to make. I used all 3 of my lasers at once. One cutting the wood, another cutting the leather, and a 3rd to engrave the coasters. I used my heat press too!

Each book coaster has a Leatherette cover, a coordinating cork coaster, a magnetic closure, and inside, we tucked in a mini bookmark tag, an acrylic clip and some sticky notes.
We will have these at our Booth at the 2026 East Grand Forks Arts & Crafts Fair and all of our other shows this season.

I'm going to try something new 5 my Booth at the 2026 East Grand Forks Arts & Crafts Fair. If it's a hit, I'll do it at other shows.

When making items on my xTool lasers, I end up with a lot of scraps. I've used those scraps to make a batch of items to give out as thank you gifts. The first 25 customers to make a purchase at my booth can pick a free Little Jesus or Pocket Hug. Keep it for yourself, or pass it along to a loved one. Let me know what you think.

Our first show is only 6 weeks away. So excited to see our customers again!
