Christmas is Fast Approaching

Did you know that it is only 64 Days until Christmas.  Scary thought.  Well If you are lucky enough to live on a Military Base or close by one, try checking out your local Spouses Club to see if they have Vendors who attend their functions.  You may be surprised to find that most of the vendors are Spouses of Active Duty or Spouses of Retired Military.  You can find the most unusual, unique, inexpensive, quality products to buy for your Christmas presents.  I am fortunate enough to be a vendor for two wonderful Spouse organizations here in Hawaii. 
The Hui O Wahine http://huispirit.com/  and
The Hui O Na Wahine http://www.schofieldspousesclub.com/  These two organizations have a plethora of fabulous vendors.  
Yesterday at the Spouses Group October Luncheon, you could have purchased all your presents without leaving the Nehelani Patio http://mwrarmyhawaii.com/nehelane  There were vendors selling Children's Educational Toys, Food and Beverage products, Jewelry, Handbags, Quilts, Ornaments and of course The OutPost.  My catalog is available at https://docs.google.com/leaf?
     I have added a page on my catalog, listing other Military Spouses or Ladies who own there own business. Here are a few.  You can get their complete info on Pg 26 of The OutPost Catalog:
