Craft bazaar wrap-up

My friend KatieB had a blast at our first craft show!  We are already scheming what to do for "next time" a phrase that makes my husband shudder.  Actually he admitted he didn't suffer too much and it will only take me a couple weeks to catch up on housework, food and laundry-ha!  Since I started preparing for this bazaar ALL the way back in November I didn't have so many last-minute crazies.  Except for the night before when Katie and I did a trial set-up that involved a lot of laughter, a trip to the craft store right before closing, gobbling down a sandwich with too much mustard because I didn't take the time to prepare or eat it properly, very little sleep since we didn't go to bed until after 1 and then I spent the whole night crafting and creating and setting up my table in my head.  And guess what--now I have this extra time in the evenings to catch up on said housework or read a book, but I want to craft!  It's a habit I guess--could be worse habits right?

Down to business: I am retiring the ribbon hair clips so take a good look below if you have a girl in need of some new hair things.  I'd like to see them ALL go to good homes and they will probably appeal mostly to local folks...I love the zipper hair clips so I will probably keep making those and if I find the right headbands again I'll make more ribbon woven headbands.

Bazaar Creations!

My friend over at Crafted by KatieB and I are trying out a Holiday Bazaar this Saturday.  Shirley E. will also be selling her beautiful scarves and hats! Come visit us at Valley View Elementary from 9 am to 2 pm.  We've been busy sewing and crafting, and alternating between excitement and "what have we gotten ourselves into!" We'd love to see you there! Click below to get a sneak preview of some of the things that will be for sale.
