Last Minute Details

Ahoy Mateys!

Our very first local fair is almost here and we are madly but happily wrapping up all those last minute details before the big day! So much to think about... signs and pricing and displays and tags and bags and wrapping paper and tables and chairs and a canopy and a float and a banner... and so on and so on and so on... On that note, I would be remiss not to mention our fantastic 10 foot banner that my son Matt at Inerseshen Creative Media designed and created for us. It is truly a work of art and we will be ever so proud to display it! Thank you son!

We hope to 'sea' you all there mateys! Saturday, May 9th from 8 am to 2 pm at 2443 Alberni Hwy in Coombs. If you are traveling west, pass the Coombs Market, go over the bridge and on your right, at the Independant Marine Store, you will see our table set up with other local sellers of nautical treasures! Mom's Day is the next day so come prepared to find many one of a kind, ocean-themed gifts for your mom and sweetheart! We will have plenty for Dad's day, also!

Okay...now where was I? Tags and bags and....

ATTENTION ALL OCEAN LOVERS!

Our first local fair is almost here! Cheryl and I will have a table set up at this very popular and widely attended Marine Swap and Shop and we are getting pretty excited! I was told that approximately 700 people show up to this event so this is a great opportunity for A2Sea Creations to get its feet wet, so to speak!

Coombs is a very well known and popular tourist spot on Vancouver Island. I highly recommend planning a day and coming to see it all... the Coombs Market where goats actually live on the roof! They have a their own little barn and grass up there ! So funny and a must-see! Then there are all the quaint little gift shops and the local guitar players singing outside. You can visit Fat Phege's Fudge Factory and watch them make their own caramel in an enourmous vat and oh... the aroma! Mmmmm.... A big thank you to them for providing us with biodegradeable bags for our sales, by the way!

After you pass the Coombs Market, travel west on the Alberni Hwy and just beyond the bridge on your right is the Independant Marine Store. On May 9th, from 8 am to 2 pm, Cheryl and I will be under a canopy with our table filled with our seaside treasures for every occasion and any budget! Mother's Day is the next day so we will be featuring a few special gifts ideal for Mom and your sweetheart!

We hope to 'sea' you there. There will be a bbq so you won't need to bring a lunch. Stop in and say hi!
