It’s that time of year again! The Spring 2016 Auction is now LIVE on Facebook! Grab some great deals on your favorite locally handcrafted items while helping small businesses in your community to grow.
Bidding closes Sunday, May 1st @ 8pm AST.
Artful Persuasion is an artisan-run shop giving crafters the opportunity to promote their locally handmade items in our very own community. The shop is 100% volunteer-run and members pitch in on a small operating budget. Proceeds from the auction will be used to help us improve our space with electrical and minor repairs. Don’t miss out on a chance to own some wonderful products at a great price while helping our local economy to thrive!
Come celebrate Earth Day with some of our many upcycled items in-store, including: Born Again Purses made from sweaters and other upcycled articles of clothing, Spooncycle Jewellery made from upcycled silverwear, Jedi Jewellery made from upcycled guitar strings, Patience Jewelry made from upcycled “found” objects, Rusty Nail Art made from upcycled railroad spikes, and many more!
KVHJensen Design is having a very special GINGER APPRECIATION SALE — whether you’re a true ginger, a ginger at heart, or just a ginger enthusiast, c’mon by the shop Monday, April 11th to take advantage of this super one day only sale! You’ll even be assisted by an honorary “Ginger-For-A-Day” member of Artful Persuasion!
