Fall Bazaar Update


Don't you love those colors?
 As most of you know, I participated in a fall bazaar this past weekend and it went really well. I sold a lot of cards, completely sold out of treat tins, sold several journals, and overall it was just a nice show. I was in a 'side room' with a Pampered Chef consultant named Tammy, and with my love of food and PC, it was a friendship made in bliss! We bartered between ourselves for items. I ended up with a Thai Curry Rub, a Season's Best cookbook I didn't have, and a bottle of Thai Peanut Sauce...and she wanted cards, so we traded! LOVE that system! She got exactly what she wanted and so did I. My handsome hubby was with me all the way. He is so great to trudge along with me. He never complained about being there or helping in any way, and when we were done, we found a Dunkin Donuts (something that we definitely do not have near us, but something we adore) so we could bring some yummy treat home. I am still shocked that he sat with that dozen donuts on his lap the entire ride (90 minutes) and didn't eat any!! :) Anyhow! I have some newish cards to show you. Some of them did sell at the Bazaar...and I don't replicate anything, so when they are gone, they are gone. Website update for those interested...its a work in progress to get each card up and get a cart attached to it, so it will be a week before its complete.

Post Craft Fair and Shopping Extravaganza

Hello blogger peeps!
I haven't posted since pre-craft fair, so I figured some of you might like to see the set up and hear how the craft fair went. I think it could have been better, but as it was the first one, I was nervous, and not really sure how to chat people up more, but I think the one I will be doing November 6th will be better. It is a Fall Bazaar at Park View Terrace in East Moline. The rest of the month will be full of boosting up on Christmas items. In the meantime, enjoy some new pics of things I made at the craft fair, and the cool set up my handsome hubby helped with...well, he did a LOT of the work setting up. He's a great merchandiser!
