Welcome Graceland North Alpacas & Angora Rabbits to Lucille's Market Barn Sale - Chisago City July 10-11th

Every Barn Sale needs products handcrafted from Alpacas & Angora Rabbits.... I am so pleased to announce & welcome  Graceland North Alpacas & Angora Rabbits to Lucille's Market Barn Sale in Chisago July 10-11th!

Pam Schaber has amazing handcrafted goods from her Alpacas, Angora Rabbits & Peacocks.  I was first introduced to her products while visiting 136 Vintage in St. Croix Falls, WI and was intrigued by the Alpaca wool soaps & beautiful Angora boot toppers.

I just had to contact Pam to see if she would bring her handcrafted goodness to Lucille's Market Barn Sale...as we were chatting she mentioned the beautiful rugs she looms, jewelry made of Peacock feathers and the list goes on.   I simply can't wait to see what Pam brings to the Market Barn Sale.

Some of the great handcrafted goodness can be found on the Graceland North Alpacas & Angora Rabbits website.

Gee...wouldn't it be neat to have Pam bring a few of her Alpacas & Rabbits....well maybe not this year but could be a good thought for the next sale.....

Enjoy ~
