· 4 Comments

On Saturday we went to the Chicago Renegade December Market, I think this was the fourth year we've gone. This year there was a venue change to the Bridgeport Art Center, I was not a fan. The building is gorgeous and I'm sure it's great for other events, but Renegade has such huge crowd that it was just too much for the building. The vendors were all on the 5th floor and you had to take an elevator to get up there, so we had to wait outside in the cold for the elevator to take groups up. I also didn't feel like there was a good flow for walking through the event. ... Read More

Last year was the first time I went to the September Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago, and I was excited to go again this year.

Since the holiday market is indoors, it's much smaller than the September outdoor Renegade fair.

A Trip to Chicago Renegade Fair – Purchases

· Leave a Comment

I've been wanting to go to the Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago for years but it never works out. The first year I heard about it was the weekend Evie was born, then it's been her birthday or birthday party that weekend. We've gone to the Christmas one, but I've really wanted to go to the one in September because it's so much bigger. This weekend we finally got to go, and I had some birthday money to spend. We saw so much awesome stuff that I'm going to do a couple different posts about the show. This one I'm going to show off what we bought. ... Read More
