Royal Oak Clay, Glass, & Metal Show

This past weekend was the Royal Oak (MI) Clay, Glass, and Metal Show and was wonderful!  I'm not sure if anyone else has participated, but I returned this year and had a successful show!  They have great music, great restaurants, wonderful attendance and good shoppers.  It would be a good show for any newbies in those mediums if they live in Michigan.  I and my family had another great weekend there.  DebSee More
