the craft fair...

Saturday I participated in my first craft fair.  It was an okay day.  I sold some pieces, met some nice people and Andrew Henry got to eat chocolate chip cookies - mostly I learned, which is always a good thing.  The main thing I learned is something I already knew - location, location, location.  Both the location of the craft fair and the location of your booth.  I was a late entry and therefore at the very back.  That's not the best place to be.  No it's most certainly not.

Last week was a crazy blitz of making jewelry and displays, pricing and packing.  My poor house is covered in beads, wire, tools, metal etc. (and lots of dust).  While I go about getting my life (and house) back in order, I thought I'd share some of what it looked like around here prior to the fair...





It's not all shiny and pretty - it never is.  I broke all 10 of my fingernails steel wooling (word?) these puppies...


Totally worth it though...


Now, back to the dust...
