{ Craft Show Update }

I’ll be back with photos tonight but I have a minute while checks are printing here at work so I thought I’d post a quick update. The show went great. We’re in a really conservative (and dutch) community so I think in a bigger area like Grand Rapids it could’ve gone better but we sold I think 25 purses and 10 or so keychains and our booth turned out perfect! :) For being at a craft show it really did have a boutique look to it which is exactly what I was going for. There was also alot of interest in the digital scrapbooking so I’ll be calling this week to set up a couple of dates to teach classes at a local place here (see earlier post on my favorite public restroom). :) Not that the classes will be taught in the bathroom. Fortunately the rest of the place is really nice too and they’ve got wireless so it should be perfect. If you read this and you’re from the Holland area check back in the next week or so for dates. I’ll try and add something over in the side margins with dates. :)

I have a few purses that I’ll be posting at the boutique blog later today (including a ruffle purse identical to the one I’ve been carrying for the past week – my newest favorite). I also have some fun fabric that came in too late to use for purses for the craft show so the boutique blog shoppers will get first dibs on some fun new looks. Those should start popping up on the blog over the next week. SO great to have my camera back finally so I can take pics as I finish new purses.

Other than that it’s back to a regular work week and hopefully more scrapping time this week. I’ll be back later to post some pics from the show (probably over on the boutique blog). :)

Michelle - I stopped by the booth and you weren't there. I did get a chance to talk to Jill real quick, though. Your booth was so cute and I loved the added touch of the aprons. I'm really interested in the class, so I'll definately be keeping my eyes open on that! Glad to hear it went well . . . September 25, 2006 - 3:15 pm

mel b. - I get to test drive the new bag tomorrow at my bible study! Cannot wait! I am so excited that it is nice and big b/c i can use it as a diaper bag and for overnighters too! I will probably have to stop in Nov. 11th too! I will probably have to get some as gifts too (for myself and others)! So glad your first craft show went well. I am very excited about the digital scrapbooking class too! DH is getting his work laptop set for me to use, so I am super excited! Have a great day Shawn! :) September 26, 2006 - 12:03 pm
