Title: Straw fans
Post by: HannahLeeDee on September 01, 2008, 11:29:35 AM
I am looking for a vendor that sells straw fans. They used to sell them along with the feather fans in the fan shop next to the crepes and  greek food. I couldn't find any at the Enchanted Hat. Any suggestions of where I could buy one? I would rather buy a fan from a vendor instead of the internet, but I will go to the web if there aren't any at the faire.

Thanks

I bought a really nice one from the drum/didgiroo (sp?) shop/tent on the northeast side of Fest by the privies and games.
It was only eight bucks, but very well made.

Happy Hunting.

I haven't been to the didg shop yet this year. Thanks. That will be one of my first stops on Saturday.

I believe I saw some in a shop in the line of Foaming Stein. Not sure exactly were or anything, but somewhere down that lane. They were hanging from the center pillar, viewable from the outside.

i saw the straw/wicker type fans that a lot of people have at the shop called Anam Cara. It's right by Bad Manor.

I got straw fans for the girls in our booth from a shop over by New Wineskins last year, not sure which one it was (I'm just the "Dad go buy it for me" guy :)) I just remember they had both feathered and straw fans there
