All clay incorporates wild clay, rocks or street glass.Luminary Designs Luminary Designs is a one-woman owned and operated artisan candle company based in Easthampton, MA. I design and craft unique fragrance experiences intended to bring inspiration in your home. I only use clean burning, U.S. grown soy wax, cotton wicks, premium fragrance oils that are non-toxic and phthalate free, and reusable + recyclable glass jars with metal lids. Every candle top is decorated with genuine gemstones and crystals to add an extra element of natural magic and whimsy to the candle burning experience. Customers can easily wash off and keep the crystals after the wax burns away.Joss Liao A combination of jewelry, ceramics, and glass, the works I’ll be selling aim to bring sentimental and nuanced aesthetics to everyday life. My business name @_intheblanks_ refers to a Chinese character “间”(meaning the in-between threshold) and my works strive to spark monumentality within liminal spaces. It’s about the hope within ashes, growth under debris, essentially and ultimately, optimism. The body of works I’ll sell will also be documentation of my interdisciplinary material exploration including glass, metal, clay, neon, furniture, prints, and paintings.Kan’s Art I am an acrylic paint artist. I create paintings using acrylic paint and sometimes oil paint on canvas and paper.

I also produce zines and publications exploring the issues closest to my heart, including climate emergency and social justice. Printmaking has a long and powerful history as a catalyst for change and a method of communication. I feel a deep responsibility to use the power of print to encourage positive action and change throughout my community and beyond. I also recently began working in ceramics again and may offer unique ceramic pieces as well.Rebecca Ho Mostly functional ware: tumblers, plates, bowls, and mugs.

Framed between a pendant setting and a glass cabochon, these acrylic & ink paintings are one of a kind.MBK BEAUTY Handmade vegan and cruelty-free cosmetics and bath & body essentialsJane Dillon Ceramics I’ll be selling candlesticks, bowls, cups, plates, baskets, jars, tulipieres, tablecloths, flowerpots, and drawings.
