Just stopping in for a few minutes to post more things I am getting ready for this weekend. This show and the next are really last minute things. I really didn't plan on doing any this year, so, It's really slow going, and I won't have nearly what I usually have, but I don't really care. I was not even going to do this craft show, but it is for fundraising for the library I work in. It would not look good if I did not have a table! I usually do pretty well, so I think with what I have, I will sell. I have another at our school in November, so I can get a feel for what will sell, so I can make more or less of those things! Those are some pins I made, including a couple little puzzle piece pins. Those always sell good for me.






These are some other things I've done, painted measure cup from the flea market, (I have 4 of those) a poinsettia ornament with a poem I found somewhere online, and a little stuffed pumpkin. I used to make and sell tons of these around here. Those pumpkins were my "thing" at all the shows, no one did them, and no one did them like I did for the longest time! Those kinds of crafts were not popular in this part of Pa. at that time. I was a pretty young pup as far as crafters went too. Most of the crafters I did shows with , where older, retired ladies trying to make some "pin" money. I was in it for the fun, the money, and the recognition and I got it all the time! I always had one of my babies with me, and of course that attracted alot of attention all the time! (sneaky,eh?). Then I began a small business of running craft shows, and that did well, till I had my third kid, and I was just too busy to do shows, and run them, so I just sold in them. I am pretty well known for my "little, tedious" things no one else likes to do. I sewed all my crafts , dolls, pumpkins by hand, I had no sewing machine. I do now, but I still don't like using it! Anyway, enough of my "history", I was just reminscing because I had a crafter call me this morning and ask me if I was going to be in this show, she did not want to sit beside me! LOL! She says I out sell her everytime, and she needs some extra mnoey, so please, she loves me and my kids, but she wants to sit clear on the other side of the building! LOL!@ She was really joking, we are friends! Well, have a great day all! And if you stopped in, I would really love to know, so leave me comment! Hugs, michelle
