Soundry Success!

Peace and well wishes wonderful world!  I am here to report that my craft fair was a success!  I am so proud! I didn't sell as much as I was hoping to, but I made a total of $99!  $30 came from another artist who had me use his art as pendants with my hemping tecnique.  The rest was bracelets, necklaces, key chains, a ring, and one peace sign.  When you count the booth fee, gas, and the supplies for my table and product, I acctually broke even.  But hey, next time I won't need to get the stuff to make my table pretty, and I still have lots of stock to move around.  Plus, I met some great people, including the awesome Wagner family who was totally into hemp!  And I gave out lots of business cards.  Yes, that's right!  I said business cards!  Side note: I actually just ordered some kick-ass business cards online and they're not here yet.  The one's at the show were just simple photo copies, but I networked and that's what counts.  I was on cloud 9!  And to top it all off, I was even able to sneak away from my table long enough to watch Will perform his comedy routine.  He did great and I got it all on film.  Anywho, time for bed...the real world awaits me at 6am.  Enjoy the pictures!

Craft Fair

Woo hoo!!!!!!  I am officially doing my first craft fair!  I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am!
If you didn't read the flyer, it's this Saturday, the 26th of February.  It's from 8pm to midnight, at The Soundry in Vienna, VA.  And it's actually an Art Carnage, rather than a fair, meaning it'll be a night of artsy indie fun!  There will be musicians, dancers and comedians performing throughout the night, as well as plenty of vendors. 

I will be there with my little table and all my jewelry for sale.  I have been working really hard lately, making product and getting prepared for this thing.  I got some really cute fabric for my table, and a few baskets to display my hemp items.  I can't wait!  And my boyfriend Will is coming with me to support and help out at the table.

Oh and P.S. for any other local crafters or artists of any sort... visit http://www.soundry.net/ for more information on how to become a part of the fun.  (It's only $10 to reserve a space and it happens once a month!)

Peace!
