Saturday I took a stroll down to Mohawk Valley Community Market. For one reason, Mother’s Day is coming. Of course my mother told me I do not need to get her a present, but I like to. Additionally, finding something at a distinctive local place might make a good blog post.
I went to the recently opened downstairs area, where I found a number of new vendors. That is one reason to return to this sort of market: there is almost always something new to see.
All kinds of sweet things!
I wandered around, admiring but not feeling inspired to buy anything. I took a few pictures, though, with my blog post in mind.
You can’t read the sign very well, unfortunately.
As I began to realize I was just not in a buying mood, a melancholy song began to play. Oh dear, I am so emotional these days.
How cute is that?
I distracted myself with the children’s rain boots on a wreath. Who thinks if these things? I made a few grapevine wreaths at one time, but never thought of using footwear. Now I am inspired to get crafty again.
My present for my mother remains purchased, but it was nice browsing the Market. Mohawk Valley Community Market is located at 142 N. Main St., Herkimer, NY. They are open 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
