How did it go?

I've heard that question a lot in the last week and I always have to think about it.  I suppose it all depends on how you look at it.  There were plenty of people passing through the cafe/cultural center.  Everyone's displays looked fantastic!  And I met the nicest people, the other vendors were all absolutely wonderful and I also met many other people who stopped by my table and looked around that were just so friendly :).  All in all I think it was a good chance to get out and meet people and try out my new displays.  I'm pretty proud of my displays, I think they turned out really well.  My husband somehow in the midst of his law school insanity managed to drop by the hardware store and create stands for my wrap bracelets.  I knew exactly what I wanted and he managed to find it!  All in all the stands took him like ten minutes to make once he had the wooden pieces lol, but they are perfect!

Here are the not so great pics I took with my ipod:



I want to cover the cork with fabric but ran out of time, I'm hoping to have that done before the next one... though it's in a week so we'll see :).   I received quite a few compliments on everything and it was so nice!  Everyone seemed to love being able to touch everything and I had one woman say she came hoping I'd be there so she could see my work in person!  That was an amazing feeling!  People weren't much in a buying mood, but it was so nice to talk to people and be around other vendors.  And the coffee smell was just soooo wonderful!  LOL.  Here are a few of the things I've been working on, some are in the shop and some aren't quite yet.  If you see something you love and it isn't listed yet, feel free to send me a message!


That last pair are my favorite... I'm calling them Wind and Fire... the way the boros swirl with the blue and then the bits of fiery oranges and coppers and reds.. LOVE!  :)  Let me know what you think!  Hope you all had a great week and have a wonderful weekend!

  3. I love the energy exchange at a show. Even if the sales are low the excitement you bring home with you gets you going with new ideas.
    Have a great weekend

  5. I love that wrap stand - genius - shows them off beautifully! ( I also love those bumpy turquoise earrings *favorite* ) I give you credit for doing 2 in a row they are exhausting but prob better once you have all the foot work out of the way and just go. Great job! XOXO
