The annual Oxford Arts & Crafts Fair will be held on Saturday November 4th at the site of the former Oxford Center School, 462 Oxford Road (Route 67) in Oxford from 10am to 4pm. With over 30 vendors bringing their hand-crafted, unique wares to the event, it’s sure to be a great way to get a head start on your holiday shopping!

Our featured artisan today is Balalalu Pottery. One of the returning artisans who will find upon entering the craft fair is Balalalu Pottery. Unique and handmade, this artist creates one of a kind "functional art pottery". (Authors note: I have several of this artists pieces in my home which receive numerous compliments, including a blue fish plate next to my sink to hold the scrubby and soap, a wall hanging of imprinted leaves, and a butter bell to keep my butter on the counter - this keeps it soft but clean and its beautiful!)

This artist sells out of inventory quickly, so we encourage you to come early if pottery is your jam! And the prices are very very reasonable, as are all of our vendors, making these items perfect holiday gifts. You can get a glimpse of her work by visiting the Balalalu facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/Balal...
