 -   -  - -  -- my brief review on Chicago's Renegade Craft Fair  -   -  - -  --  -  - -   - --  -  - 

it took 4 hours to see everything, we were rather tired from walking all day. in the grande scheme of things there were too many jewelry tents & sadly it all looked the same - triangle motifs - brass - wood - color blocking- to be honest i was looking for some raw crystal stud earrings, (i've been searching since spring) but still no luck.
