On the Craft Fair Circuit
Monday, October 8th, 2007Candace and I participated in another craft show this weekend, a small, local show in connection with a church. There seem to be so many this time of year. With only a month to prepare we have spent every spare minute with a needle in hand or adding the finishing touches and wanted to show you the fruits of our labor!
Here Candace is sitting with my mom. We all brought our yarn to help the time pass by. You would think with the blisters that we came with we wouldn’t be eager to pick our needles up but 5 straight hours with no baby seemed like an opportunity too rare to pass up. It also helps too to not stare down those who are slowly perusing our stuff or not to wait for their facial affirmation.
And yes, though we had some adorable stuff it did not all get bought, so if anything catches your eye you of course can check out our shops and make it your own! Candaces‘ crocheted clutches with felt embellishment are so yummy and her large felted totes! Her polymer clay earrings are definitely worth checking out too!
And I had an assortment of new felted bags and totes that I have been working on for fall, trying to have patience to make larger bags since so many people have wanted bags that hold everything! I’ve gotten back in to making jewelry too which is fun but hard not to keep them all for myself.
We even had the opportunity to advertise the craft show and Craftydaisies on a local tv show. Four minutes of fame that has come and gone but will definitely not be forgotten, at least for Candace and I. If you have had any great experiences or funny stories from doing shows please share! I can’t believe it but we are already entertaining the thought of doing another one!
