Waters Craft Show

Yesterday was the big craft show that I’ve been preparing for… and it went pretty well. We had a great spot and my display looked amazing! I was also really happy with the amount of items I had in stock. Over all I sold 1 pair of earrings and 2 headbands. Although I did sell enough for the show and supplies to pay for themselves, I still don’t think it was the right audience. No worries though, every show I get to meet other great artisans, and get to talk to fellow crafters. Maybe next year I’ll have my butt ready for a holiday gift bazaar, but for the time being, I still have a ton of stuff to get listed online!

Check out my pictures from the show here.

What A Pheasant Surprise!

After a fun filled day of exploring an amazing handmade and ethnic craft store and making our way through miles of corn maze, we came home to a welcome surprise. I had my first Etsy sale! I’ve sold things to friends and at craftshows, but this was my first “official” online transaction. I sold the pictured pheasant feather headband. I just wanted to share the good news, and I’m hoping that this will be a new trend!

Also, this morning I won a random drawing for Twitter followers from welovecolors.com. It’s an awesome place to find any kind of tights and leggings. I’m so excited to get my mystery tights. I’ll be sure to post pics of them when I receive them!

I'll be posting a lot more this week, I have a lot to share!
