IT'S OVER

I'm too tired to write but I just wanted to share some pictures of my table at the show today. I had lots of fun, met some great people, saw some cool stuff, heard some great music but I didn't make alot of (or almost any!) money. That's ok 'cause it was my first show ever and it was a great learning experience. I just want to give a big thank you to the Etsy community for making me look like a pro. I took all of the advice I found on the forums, made a list, checked it twice and it made me look like a million bucks. I love you, Etsians :)

So, here's my booth and stuff. I didn't buy anything for the display at all. I had the table, tablecloth, cake plates, display trees, easels & tray around the house. I had Henry go through the garage and find all unused pieces of scrap wood and used them as pedestals and a makeshift display for hanging my cards. I used a box that came with one of Ethan's toys to hang some dowels to display my ACEOs - I painted everything white. :) Having NO MONEY didn't stop me! Enjoy.







I think I'm going to bed now. Yes, I know it's only 7pm but I'm pooped! G'nite all!
