COAST GUARD ART FESTIVAL AUGUST 6 AND 7TH

With summer festivals come summer art and craft shows.  Today was Grand Haven's turn to host the artists and crafters in Central Park.  A beautiful sunny day with the humidity finally dropping for a couple of days so we didn't have to swim through the park.

One of our favorite jewelry artist was at the park.  She was so busy at the Muskegon Art Show we were not able to get her picture there so we went to the park very early this morning to see Millie and her husband, Ron, of Native Textures--Artistic Stone Jewelry.

Millie the artist.

Her husband, Ron, whose knowledge of minerals is phenomenal.

Someone is happy getting a new pendant.  Millie's web site is http://www.nativetextures.com/

Although we do not have a picture of his booth, we also throughly enjoyed talking to Carl who sells Hand Painted Coins from around the world.  His family is one of two families who do this kind of work.  His web site is: http://www.dingwellspaintedcoins.com/
