Despite the small turnout, and the down pour we got here. I had a lot of fun networking with other crafters. I sold about 8 items, so not all bad, but the fun outweighed the small turn out. Some of these crafters had some great items, that no one even knows about yet because they only sell at bazaars. I invited a few of my favortites to come and check out Etsy.
When I first discovered Etsy, I remember how excited I was. Today you would have thought I worked for them LOL. I think it is wonderful having all those crafters in the same room, it feeds my creativity in so many ways. There was Some Beautiful Jewelry By Angelique, who by the way it setting up a website for you all to be able to see soon. I saw some handmade bears, knitted blankets, soap, and even clothes.
You really can tell the difference in a room full of crafters, who really loves what they make, it shines through in their personality, as well as their product. I also invited a few of them to join us here in blogger world. It will be exciting to see them again even if it is online.
So here is a few pics, not very good ones, but hey I got up at 6 am and my lighting in the room was not that great either. That's my excuse, and I am sticking to it.
(Can you tell I wanted to be noticed with my bright Orange today)

Thats looks like a lot of fun! I Wish I could have come I would have shopped for sure...
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you had a good time and did not get skunked. I have been doing "shows" (street fairs, bazaars ect...) for years with my handmade items, native american inspired items, flutes ect.. It is fun to get out and meet people face to face. Nothing like seeing others items to get the creative juices flowing.
ReplyDeleteHow fun for you!!! Love your booth...and love the jewelry. Looking forward to you introducing us to your crafter friends when they decide to come online.
ReplyDeleteSo tell us which items were the big sellers at this particular bazaar. Sorry the weather wasn't better...I'm sure sales would have been increased if it was a nicer day.
