Jubilee at Jackson's Mill
I decided to try some old fashioned publicity: I walked around talked to the vendors, exchanged business cards, and found some very promising products along the way. So, I thought I would tell you about them.
First, I met a man, who might I add is very passionate, he was informing me about a product he has to offer it's called Nature's Magic. The business is named Lost Creek Candle Company you can find them at www.lostcreekcandleco.com . He let me try a sample of the hand cream. I must say my hands feel soft and supple. while at the same time protected. While talking to him he mentioned that he has a customer who uses it to obliterate radiation rash. I bought some for my grandfather to try. As soon as I know how it works I will be sure to inform you ASAP. He is a nurse and decided to make this product for himself because of the exposure he gets to various chemical compounds on a daily basis. I believe I will be one of the few who is exuberantly happy that he decided to share it with the world. He definitely made the most affect on me due to his passion.
Second, was a lady who I have to say I related too, she was selling goat milk soaps and lotions. The name of her company is Spring Creek Soaps. You see I have very sensitive skin, I swear it is border line ridiculous. She let me sample her hand cream as well and I never broke out. It was the unscented version. You can contact her at mamawlois04@yahoo.com. She told me she uses her soap and lathers it up to wash her hair. She said it works great and her hair is clean. I am super excited to try it to see how it works because I do not like having sores in my hair.
Third, I found a booth that I must say I support 100%. They make paper beads from recycled newspaper. The artist even took the time to show me how she made her beads from newspaper. The company calls itself EcoBead Jewelry. You can find their work at EcoBeadJewelry.com personally I will look up the artist that demonstrated for me personally at kare@zendik.org. I must say my favorite beads were the ones with words because when they make the bead it ends up looking almost like a foreign language.
Fourth, was a very spectacular lady, she was an absolute joy to converse with. Her craft was absolutely spectacular she made pottery mixed with basket weaving. Unfortunately at this time she does not have a web site but I honestly suggest that you look up her work it is absolutely gorgeous. Her name is Evelyn Elonis and she calls her company Harmony Hill Pottery. You will find her at 3798 Centralia Rd. Sutton, W.V.
I met 3 other astounding individuals that day. Pamela Kesling who calls her company Against the Grain. She carved outlines in wooden planks, she had this beautiful tree that was bare of leaves with a young girl swinging on a rope swing. I am saving my money to buy it so even if you love it don't buy it I call dibs. :P You can find her at 2945 Linger Run Rd. Horner, WV 26372. I talked to another wonderful lady, I apologize but I do not recall her name, she was selling honey with Mountain State Honey Company. You can find them at www.mtnstatehoney.com . I bought some of the honey and it was delicious. The third person was an author as well. He writes first person historical impersonations. I never told him that I was an aspiring author myself because well I don't believe he would have been very open to it. He seemed to dislike the whole idea of ebooks altogether and even referred to himself as entering into the technological age kicking and screaming. He said that amazon was trying to work with him to get him to give on ebook away free. You can find him at www.boboconnorbooks.com or at http://lincolnsbodyguardblog.blogspot.com .
I did meet one other person who was selling fruit and berry preserves and fruit butters. He seemed a bit pompous. I asked if he would mind I wrote something on my blog about the jellies and such. He said, "Blog? No. We spend to much time on the computer as it is." He said he didn't need all that because he was a company and in Kroger's stores. So, I will end here and not tell you who he was, what he was selling or give you the name of the company. I just sincerely hope that people are nicer to him than he is to others.
