The three "crafty cute sassy ladies" behind Pinklight Bazaar: Erica Abalos, Emma Kruch , and Jess Wynn. They "just wanna have fun, eat cupcakes, craft, and hug each other, trees and baby animals."

What
Pinklight Bazaar is a reoccurring estrogen-packed event created to support & raise awareness about the breakthrough arts & crafting community in Orlando and beyond! Also, they "just think that there needs to be more girly events in Orlando. More pink. More glitter. More polka dots. More pink champagne. More girl love/bonding. What is ith all this catty bullsh** between ladies? Chill and EAT CUPCAKES."
Boys are more than welcome to attend AFTER the ladies happy hour (which happens the first hour), though they must be very comfortable with their sexuality and embrace the color pink.
Attire
"Classy and sassy attire requested. This is basically an excuse to play dress-up. Break out that amazing frilly dress you've had in the back of your closet for 3 years with nowhere to wear it to, cuz ladies, now ya do! I'm talking 80s prom dresses, costumes, you name it, we'll love it. Bayam." (Whoever wrote this is hilarious. I love it.)
Vendors
Handmade one-of-a-kind jewelry from both ALEXANDRA SARTON and STRAY CREATIVE, reconstructed vintage clothing by ADORE VINTAGE, all-new original artwork by mixed-media and graphic design darling ANNA MELCON, with cupcakes by BEES KNEES SWEET TREATS & now offering vegan cupcakes by the lovely Kristen at SWEET TOOTH VEGAN GOODIES.
