Renegade Craft Fair SF

Come see us in San Fransisco this weekend for Renegade Craft Fair!

We’ll be at the Fort Mason Center Festival Pavilion (it’s all the way in the back of the Fort Mason Center) from 11am-7pm on Saturday and Sunday, July 31st-Aug. 1st. We’ll have one-of-a-kind mustache mugs, assorted designs of our popular pint glasses, plus new juice glasses, recycled glass oil & vinegar bottles, soap dispensers and more!

Here are the directions from their website:

The entrance for Fort Mason is located at the intersection of Marina Blvd. and Buchanan St. in the Marina district.  From the entrance, you will have to make your way thru the complex to the far pier on the waterfront – which is Festival Pavilion.  This is a spectacular venue right on the Bay, featuring sweeping views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz.

BY PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION: Located between Fisherman’s Wharf and the Golden Gate Bridge on the San Francisco Bay, Fort Mason is easily accessible by the MUNI and BART.  Muni lines near Fort Mason are the: 10 Townsend, 22 Fillmore, 28 19th Ave, 30 Stockton, 47 Van Ness and 49 Van Ness/Mission.

BY CAR: The automobile entrance to Fort Mason Center is at the intersection of Marina Blvd and Buchanan St. – There is no street address.

East Bay: Bay Bridge to Fremont Street exit.  On Fremont, take the first right on Howard.  Turn left on Embarcadero and go 2 miles.  Turn left on Bay and go 2 miles.  Turn right on Buchanan and cross Marina Blvd.  Make a sharp right into Fort Mason.

North Bay: Golden Gate Bridge (US 101) to Marina exit.  Take Marina Blvd for 1.5 miles to Buchanan and turn left into Fort Mason.

South Bay: US 101 North to 9th St. exit.  Take 9th St. across Market and turn left on Hayes.  Then turn right on Franklin, left on Bay, and right on Buchanan.  Cross Marina Blvd. and make a sharp right into Fort Mason.

Our Mustache Rocks Glass was just featured in a gift guide on Lotus’s Workshop blog!

In honor of my new found appreciation of really freaking random holidays, here’s to Legal Drinking Age Day! No I’m completely serious (or at least as serious as I can be after a shot or two).

A new personal favorite is the black cherry Mike’s Hard Lemonade. A lot of friends of my boyfriend refer to Mikes and other flavored drinks as bitch beer, but I’ve never seen any of them turn it down (in fact you leave it in the fridge unattended while they are over and the stuff seems to mysterious vanish instantly).

Personally I can’t stand the taste of beer, but rum, now there’s a drink. Especially for cooking. I make rum spice cookies and rum pizzelles, and my brother’s rum ice cream recipe is the best (combine that with a pizzelle shaped into a cone and yay!). Another alcohol baked goodie I’m very partial to is sherry cakes.

There are a lot of makers on Etsy who celebrate the joys of alcohol.

As always remember to enjoy your booze with brains. Underage drinking can damage still developing bodies and minds, driving drunk is selfish and moronic and if your beer is a coping mechanism as well as a beverage you have a problem and need to seek help and support to deal with that problem.
