Scaling back, staying grateful
Over the last 38 years Cloud Productions has grown their craft shows of distinction from Findlay over to Muncie, Indiana, up to Toledo, and south to Dayton and Wilmington. We have made so many good friends and have loved every minute of it! We love being a staple event annually for so many families and we appreciate the kind words and support over the years.
After much thought, family discussion, and careful consideration, we’ve made the decision to scale back our show calendar and focus solely on Springtime in Ohio and Christmas in October at the Hancock County Fairgrounds.
It all started 38 years ago with Christmas in October, and these two events—held the first weekend of May and the first weekend of October—have grown to become our most beloved shows. They bring together incredible vendors and thousands of loyal customers year after year. It’s our hometown, and it just feels right to keep these traditions going strong.

DAVID CREGO CHAINSAW ARTIST
Always in Memory of my dad DB...
Daniel Buser Jr.
The family is busy, busy, busy this year and the grandkids are growing up fast.
Dani and Cliff are either working or traveling for softball. Dani was lucky to go to Spain this year for work and loved everything about it — especially the special designs on top of her coffee. Kenzie got her temps at the beginning of the year and went to homecoming last fall.
The big excitement was her softball team making it to the PGF National Championship — and winning after her clutch hit brought two teammates home. Kenzie and Maddi are both beautiful and talented girls. Maddi is growing up fast, a fantastic pitcher, and will be joining her sister’s team next year — hopefully heading to Nationals again in 2026. Max is all boy, playing sports and hanging with friends every chance he gets. He’s a big Ohio State fan, and last year the whole family took in a game together. Tennessee has been good to them, and they’re loving life. I got to visit earlier this year, do a little shopping with the girls, and just hang out meeting their friends.
Mac and Jillian are keeping busy with work and raising their two awesome boys. After two years of working from home, Mac headed back to the office this year and is crushing it. He continues to enjoy refereeing college football and even
We don’t remember days, we remember moments… My rocks throughout the years started with my Dad, DB, Daniel Buser Jr and Mom, Lainey, Elaine Buser who supported all my creativity starting as a child. Later helping me bring Christmas in October to a reality by always coming to help with whatever I needed. They would roll up their sleeves and help move things and sometimes build things when I would get a vision. The show quickly spiraled into adding Springtime in Ohio and many other shows over the years. It was sometimes stressful but so much fun being together. In recent years even with my Mom out east after my dad passed away, she was still cheering me on, helping to write stories and coming out when she could. Sadly, Lainey passed the winter of 2024. Love this pic! She was my O in Cloud Productions.
Your life was a blessing, your memory is a treasure…Dean has been gone for four years and I still love vendors sharing stories of him visiting their booth or helping with set-up. I think of him daily, smile, laugh and sometimes shed a tear of all the wonderful memories we made with family and friends.
got some exciting Big Ten games — as well as refereeing home Bengals game! Edison started kindergarten this fall, and Harrison would happily tag along if he could. The brothers do everything together — from playing at home to Disney
adventures and visits to the grandparents. They’re happy, energetic, and always on the go. Lucky for me, they live nearby, so I get lots of visits… and lucky for them, I’m also the official fur grandma when they head out on vacation!
Over the last year my mom, Lainey passed and I was lucky to have had a few trips out to see her to spend some time. Since then I have made it out east a few times to be with my sister’s and their families. It is always nice to be close to a beach and soaking up some rays. Ohio is my home base and I enjoy spending time with friends and working on scaling back at the homestead. But it’s always fun to find old pictures or tiny treasures that bring back good memories.
Make memories, live life to the fullest and enjoy everything life throws at you.
