Garden of Eden

Come visit our own Garden of Eden. There are many items for your garden and
also made from items in your garden! Some examples are: Painted garden
ornaments, Dried flowers, Luminaries, Plants and Painted pots!

Jewery

Women of the church have donated jewelry they no longer wear! There is a huge
variety. A jewelry specialist has found some real treasures in the donations and
they will be included in a Silent Auction the day of the Bazaar. This is not to be
missed!!

Yard Barn

Women in the church have been knitting some wonderful scarves and hats,
purses, shawls and dishcloths and much much more! There will also be skeins of
yarn left over from previous projects for sale.

Men's Corner

The men of the church have been hard at work cutting out Gingerbread House
forms from Masonite. These forms can be glued together to make a Gingerbread
House and then decorated just like one made from Gingerbread! After the season
is over, you just soak the boards, the decorations melt off, the boards come apart
and you can store it flat until the next time you want to use it!

Bake Sale

Self explanatory goodness from the ovens of St. Paul’s families!!
This booth will also be selling Gift Jars full of the ingredients to make goodies
for friends and loved ones!

Advent Calendars

Advent Calendars have been carefully and lovingly made of felt. The calendar will
hang in your home and soon become a tradition and an heirloom. Each calendar
has 24 pockets on the front. Hidden in each pocket is a different felt ornament.
These ornaments are placed onto the Christmas tree at the top of the calendar as
each day passes and brings you closer to Christmas morning. On Christmas
morning, a special ornament is removed from pocket #25 on the back of the
Calendar.
This is baby Jesus and he is placed in the manger at the base of the
Christmas tree.
Only 10 of these wonderful calendars will be made due to the time needed to craft
them. Do not miss you opportunity to have one!

Theme Baskets

The youth of our church have taken on this project. Gift baskets will be sold with
individual themes. Some of the themes are: Spa retreat, Gardening, Sports,
Movie, Coffee and Tea, Candles and so many more!

Children's Bazaar

The kids will have a special place to shop for Mom and Dad and Grandma and
Grandad, Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Boo-Boo! Youth “elves” will assist them in
picking out items for family members for Christmas. I am not going to list what is
going to be in there, so it will be a surprise on Christmas morning! What you need
to know is that the items in the Children’s Bazaar will all be $5 or less each!

St. Nicks Knacks

This booth will be the grouping of all the things that did not neatly fit into
another category! Here is a sampling of some of the items: Santa’s made out of socks,
decorated picture frames, mosaic crosses, Pine cone fire starters, marbled paper,
hand painted wine glasses, note cards and many more!

Silent Auction

There are some items donated by artisans in our parish that will be available for
you to bid on via a silent auction. This will be a great opportunity for you to get a
piece of beautiful art from local artists.
