Everything beads is what I think of when I think of this Raleigh store called Ornamentea. It’s not a big store but you could make a lot of jewelry and arts and crafts stuff with what they carry. It’s like a small Michael’s store specializing in beads. You can make your own felted wool creations too if you have time on your hands.

They have classes too most days of the week for adults and kids. You should check it out if you’re into that crafty sorta thing.

Every week there’s something (some things) interesting going on in Raleigh. You don’t have to be a Raleigh insider to appreciate. Like the Downtown Designer Market where there are lots of artists with their handmade jewelry, scarves, and other handmade goods. It was in the parking lot off West Street.

They even had this hot dog stand.

Check out these wool dogs. This woman makes them for $85. I asked if she could make a Chihuahua and she said she could. That’s as close to what Apollo looks like although he’s really a mix and the personality of a mixed dog. Not a yappy Chi-hua-hua.

…and these really cute cupcakes…there not for real of course. But they sure look yummy!
