Friday, July 18, 2025

Reader of the Day: Margaret Kailhofer

This state street fixture became legendary for wearing her feathered bonnet as she sells her jeweled creations. Affectionately dubbed Maggs\ by her devoted patrons, this beader used to be a graduate advisor at UW. Maggs dropped her job like it was hot to pursue her career in beadery. But what does this mysterious woman do when she's not assembling delicate jewels? Maggs can be found spooning her kitty cats at home with her loving hubby and working with weiners at Oscar Meyer in the winter.
