Maybe that&#8217;s because this weekend is <a title="Renegade Craft Fair" href="http://http://www.renegadecraft.com/brooklyn?site=bk" target="_self">The Renegade Craft Fair</a>—Art Basel for the Etsy crowd—where you could fill a whole Airstream with the DIY cloth purses, agro onesies and vintage-print aprons that will be filling the 250-plus foldup tables at McCarren Park. But what&#8217;s the really good stuff? We asked our design-editor friend Mary Kate for a highly opinionated preview.<span id="more-1725"></span></p><p><strong>PINE CONE CANDLES, $12</strong><br /> When you land an invitation to a richer friend&#8217;s roof deck/pool/house in the Hamptons on a 90-degree day, give them a <a title="Berdandbe pinecone candle" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=18346665" target="_self">Berdandbee pine cone candle</a> and they’ll think you spent $30 on it.

These mustache cards remind me of  the annual event where a bunch of everyday-shavers put down their Mach3s for a some allotted time to see who can grow the best ‘stache. The results are achingly funny, and a little perverse (a <em>lot</em> of them look like they belong on a keep-away-from-your-kids-list). I’ll pick up one of these <a title="http://virginiakraljevic.blogspot.com/" href="http://virginiakraljevic.blogspot.com/" target="_self">Virginia Kraljevic cards</a> for our friend who competes&#8230;.</p><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1735" title="picture-97" src="http://www.brokelyn.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/picture-97.png" alt="picture-97" width="295" height="345" /></p><p><strong>BIRD FEEDER, $88<br /> </strong>It&#8217;s a lot if you think of it as spending $88 on birds you don&#8217;t really know, but <a title="Perch Designs" href="http://www.perchdesign.net/garden_lunchbox_birdfeeder.html" target="_self">Perch Designs&#8217; lunchbox feeder</a> makes an affordable wedding present for a designy friend.</p><p><strong><br /> </strong></p><blockquote><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1731" title="picture-93" src="http://www.brokelyn.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/picture-93.png" alt="picture-93" width="432" height="420" /></p><p><strong>NECKLACE, $12<br /> </strong>Something about <a title="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23843614" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23843614" target="_self">Althea Logia&#8217;s necklace</a> makes me want to rent the <em>Wackness</em> and drink wine coolers.</p><p><em><a title="Renegade Craft Fair" href="http://www.renegadecraft.com/brooklyn?site=bk">Renegade Craft Fair</a></em><em>, Williamsburg&#8217;s McCarren Park, </em><em>June 6 and 7, </em><em>11-7. </em><strong></strong></p></blockquote><p><br style="clear:both;" /></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.brokelyn.com/renegade-craft-fair-sneak-preview/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
