The Things We Learn
Soooo....Salty Not Sweet....not so successful for me this time around. Luckily I have a few shows under my belt so I have an idea what to expect. If this had been my first show I may have thrown in the towel right then and there!
But everything is a learning experience right? And there were a few things I learned from this show. The first is about my display. I seem to struggle with ideas for a unique and attractive table. This is still a learning process for me as I attempt different set-ups and lay outs that are appealing and tasteful. Although I like the black necklace stands and table covering I realized that the black does not work with my vintage brass pieces. The few silver I displayed totally popped on the black velvet but the dark brass kind of got lost.
On the otherhand I love the new business cards and tags Brooke designed and really like how they look with the earrings and bracelets. As far as the necklace displays go...I'll work on something new and more appealing before the next show in November.
So onward and upward. I'm looking forward to the next show -OddMall- in November and glad for the little bit of time to get it all together!

New Show
.jpg)
A new show this weekend in Cuyahoga Falls. It's called Salty Not Sweet Indie Craft Show. Interesting name no? Brooke (www.yourveryownartist.com) and I will be there all day Saturday - the show being from 11am to 7pm.
Quirk Cultural Center 1201 Grant Avenue Cuyahoga Falls, OH
I've been working like crazy to produce new pieces since I sold quite a bit over the summer. Not really sure what to expect at this event but I am hopeful for a good turnout. In looking at the other vendors expected to show Saturday it's an interesting mix of creative minds! I'm excited about some of the new stuff I have produced and am looking forward to getting a reaction from the general public.
Got a bunch of new supplies in this week, brass findings, new display items, business cards and earring cards. The only problem is there just isn't enough hours in the day to sit down and create! The ideas are never ending but the allotted always is soooooo limited. Seems my work space keeps shrinking too! Oh...but I digress.
Here are a couple of pieces that I sold this summer...I can't get enough of the dragonflies!
