St. Blaise Country Christmas Fair Set for December 7th

The St. Blaise Holy Crafters (maybe with a little help from Santa’s elves) are working hard to handcraft many beautiful items in the Parish Hall and the homes of crafters in Bellingham. 

They are creating unique gifts such as afghans, Christmas decorations, religious items, Christmas gift baskets, jewelry, etc.  All of these will be displayed in the Country Store for purchase during the St. Blaise Christmas Country Fair, December 7, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.  There will also be food items for sale, like homemade soups and chili in a jar (just add meat and water), Reindeer Chow, artisan breads, handcrafted chocolate and other treats at the country store.  Kids (of any age) can buy a prefilled penny candy bag for 50 cents.  Everyone can stop by for a free bag of popcorn!  There will be other handmade items for purchase, like key rings, bookmarks, tissue holders, bible covers, at the Craft table too.

The kitchen will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with lunch choices like hamburgers, hot dogs, chili, dynamites, and other favorite foods and drinks.   

A variety of breads, muffins, cookies, cakes, and pies from the St. Blaise Sweet Shoppe will be ready to enjoy as breakfast or dessert at the Fair or packaged to take as gifts.  

There will be old favorites and new kids’ games with prizes displayed with each game in a Kids Zone.  The main raffle table, lottery ticket raffle, and the adults’ Card Game will also make their return.

According to a trusted source, the man of the season, Santa will arrive at 10 a.m.!  All who are at the Fair can make their Christmas gift requests until 2 p.m. and also take a picture with him!
