Crafters & artists, this is a call for entries to join The Paisley Farmhouse at our first annual Handmade Market art and craft fair. Mark your calendars: Saturday, June 6th at the Birmingham Village Shopping Center (980 Birmingham Road, Milton, GA 30004).

During the day, all the shops in the village will be hosting fun activities! The Paisley Farmhouse’s activity will be the Handmade Market fair. Around 8:30, the shopping center will kick off the first of many summer evening "Movies Under the Stars"!

If you are a crafter or artist and would be interested in hosting a table at our outdoor daytime event, please contact shanda@paisleyfarmhouse.com. Tell us a little about you, your art/craft, and attach some pictures of your products. We are also interested in food vendors (jellies, candies, baked goods, and more). Space is limited to about 20 vendors, and we want a nice variety, so we cannot accept every entry. We don’t have much time, so we hope to hear from you soon!

Now, don’t be shy ... let’s see your stuff! Email us your submission by May 16. We’ll let you know by May 20 if you’re in.

1. Submission deadline is May 16. We’ll let you know by May 20 if you’re in.
