Snowflake Boutique, Redmond, OR
The 50th Snowflake Boutique will be Friday, November 6th 1:00pm-8:00pm and Saturday, November 7th 9:00am-5:00pm at the Deschutes County Fair and expo Center in the Cascade Lakes South Building. Admission is $4.00 per person, children under 12 are free. This is the 50th year for an amazing holiday event that show cases local artists, crafters, and food specialties for your shopping pleasure. The Snowflake Boutique is unique as it is set up as a store/boutique to shop as long as you wish and pay once before you leave. This is the best show to start your holiday shopping. Post expense proceeds are donated to local Central Oregon charities.
What began as a few friend selling crafts from their home in 1975 has evolved into a major Central Oregon event looked forward to by thousands of people.
The Snowflake Boutique is unique in many ways. It is a club, not a business. Club members donate their time to organize, set up and run this arts and crafts show. Consignors are “juried” to assure that their handcrafted items are of the highest quality and are not duplicates of another consignor's craft. We usually have over 75 consignors and members that take part in the show, each one with their own unique style that almost guarantees the perfect gift for you or someone special.
Don't mistake “Boutique” for “Bazaar”. The Snowflake Boutique differs from a bazaar in that items are intermingled for maximum ambience rather than segregated in booths. Common themes include: Christmas, fishing, sports, floral arrangements, tree decorations, autumn, holiday, kitchen, garden, pets, western – and everything in-between. What can you expect to find: ornaments, stained glass, quilts, furniture, bird houses, clothing, purses, wood carvings, doll clothes, metal work, ceramics, handmade soaps and candles, jewelry, one-of-a-kind decorations, and lots of Santa's, snowmen and angels -- just to name a few.
No need to pull your wallet out every time you find something you want – just pay one time as you exit (we even take debit and credit cards).
The not for profit organization that presents the Snowflake Boutique each year donates the post-expense proceeds to local charities throughout Central Oregon.
Snowflake always welcomes new crafters. Items are selected by a jury process. Please refer to our website for more information.
