Craft Show Success!

Hello! I had a great time at my craft show last weekend - who would have thought a springtime show would become my #1 highest-selling show that I've ever done?!? I certainly wasn't expecting that, but it was a really great surprise!! Thank goodness two of my sisters (Joann and Mary) showed up right when it was getting busy. They took care of transactions for me while I spent time re-sizing bracelets and creating custom earrings for people. The same group organizes a holiday show each year, so I am applying for that, along with at least 3 other holiday shows. My plan is that, since I'll be graduating in April, I will be able to do a TON of shows around Christmastime this year! For the past 3 years, I've really only done 1 holiday show each year (except I did 2 the first year), because I'm always dealing with exams right before the holidays too. But this year will be different!! I don't know if I'll get accepted to all the holiday shows or not (all of them are juried, just like all the shows I've been doing lately), but it will be fun to see how many shows I can do! I may end up doing another spring show yet this season, but we'll see. I'll be sure to post it here if I end up doing it. :)

Ebay sales always seem to slow down around the beginning of March for me, so I am listing few items right now than I have been for the last few months. No use paying listing fees if no one is buying very much!!! I did get to make beads over spring break; I am going to use the beads for earrings to sell, rather than selling the beads on their own.
