Sḵwálwen Botanicals – Changing the Face of Skincare
A recap of all the wonderful items for under $50 dollars at this year's Nifty for Fifty sale.
I was able to preview some of the pieces before the rush of shoppers came in and even though I wasn‘t surprised at the great items to choose from (reading the vendor list, it was obvious that this event was full of great talent), I was very impressed at the variety of pieces that were available for under $50.
Nifty for FIfty is amazing and I know I’m not alone in thinking that – there was a line-up even before the doors opened. It was great to see so much of the community supporting local talent and being able to meet the designers. I’m already looking forward to the next Nifty for Fifty event and hope to see more people at the next one.
