See You Sunday!
We can't wait to see you this coming Sunday, November 12th at 11am for Holiday Crafterino! We have selected amazing vendors for you, and collected thousands in raffle and swag bag goodies. Now all we need is YOU to make this a success for COTS (Committee on the Shelterless), Petaluma's Homeless Service Provider. Thank you to everyone who has helped us organize this comeback event!!
Raffle Goodness!
That said, we would love to show our donors that their big hearts will be met by your raffle ticket purchases! Remember, every dollar you spend on raffle tickets goes DIRECTLY to COTS! The more tickets you buy, the better chance you have to win, and the more we give to COTS during this important time of year.
Not only that, COTS has had a donor step forward who will match our donation dollar for dollar, so when you buy raffle tickets, your donation will automatically be doubled! It's a win-win for everyone!
Raffle tickets are $2 each or 3 for $5 and will be for sale at the door and the front table throughout the event!

Meet the Vendors: The Weekend Store
The Weekend Store was born from a deep desire to provide not just a good gift, but the perfect gift. Over the years our collection has grown from typewriter key jewelry to an extensive selection of thoughtfully curated pieces crafted by our in-house production team. The Weekend Store offers a progressively designed, hand-made collection of exceptional home goods, clothing, and accessories for people who celebrate individuality, champion social justice, and appreciate wit.
Meet the Vendors: Stella's Table
Their matriarch, Stella Rosa Carassali, stood as an obvious symbol for Stella's Table's adventure into its boutique of foods that stemmed from family traditions. The traditions and memories, the laughter and tears, all began and ended at the table. No matter the celebration, they gathered around the table with family and friends and partook in delicious food, drank good wine and made an everlasting impact on their friends and family. Inspire your own traditions with their simple, delicious, homemade or handcrafted products that lead to long-lasting memories.
Meet the Vendors: Bird vs. Bird
Bird vs. Bird Designs comes to you from the studio/brain/heart of Bess Petty, an Oakland, CA based maker with a background in both fine art and graphic design, and with a life-long love of nature. From pencil sketches to finished illustrations, and from prototypes to packaging to sewing, every product is created by me and features Bess's original artwork.
From its humble beginnings as a weekend hobby, Bird vs. Bird has grown into a thriving creative business, with a successful online store, regular appearances at maker events in Northern California, and a presence in independent retail stores across the country.
Meet the Vendors: Devi Life
Devi is a culmination of a 10-year journey that took us from San Francisco to Jaipur via Bali. It's based on a love of traveling, textiles, and a fascination with the world that surrounds us. We wanted to curate products that embrace the ancient artisanal methods of creation while integrating the aesthetics of modern everyday wear. The goal is to elevate an everyday experience to a luxurious sensory one while supporting artisans, embracing traditional practices, and staying true to our sustainability commitments.
