Craft Show Sneak Peek

Thursday, May 05, 2011

Gasp.
That's me coming up for air! It's been a busy and exciting week of Mother's Day Teas, gift making, sunshine enjoying, creating new designs for the shop, and preparing for the huge show, Crafty Wonderland, coming up this weekend. Practically up to my eyeballs in handbags and clutches...but so thankful my family has really pitched in to help! 


Here's a little peek at some of the booth details: 
{the paper circles above will be a sweet little stitched garland....}

Display stand that I designed, my little brother built, and my husband stained - a lovely natural yellow color. "Honeydew" to be exact ;)  Hoping my handbags display gorgeously from this one of a kind tree!

More compliments to my little construction-worker brother and his building skills and to my husband for painting this beauty of a shelf unit!
My official sign. So excited for this! I love how it turned out...again- all thanks to my husband - without him I probably would've resorted to hand-embroidering my name on the table cloth or something....

And...a little yellow bowl of business cards! 

Alright, I'm off to finish the last of the hoop handle bags and enjoy the last remaining minutes of my little one's nap :)

Everything looks wonderful! Too bad this show wasn't last week when we were in the Portland area! (with the rain and snow and cold....heard it warmed up the day we left!)
I absolutely love your business cards! What a treasure!

Everything looks great! There's a nice dimensionality to the look, and the same tone comes through, too. Pretty! Make sure to test out your handbag tree so it isn't susceptible to tipping of unbalanced or if it's windy (BTDT). Good luck!!

Are your cards letterpressed? They are beautiful.

Thank you for all the wonderful feedback!
Really appreciate your tip about testing out my display tree...I'm just lucky we're indoors ;)

Alejandra- my cards aren't letterpressed- just the matte finish from gotprint.com

Hooray! I know so well what you're feeling right now, and your cheerfulness and optimism is a sign of your true professionalism and readiness for this show! That, or you're in a sleep-deprived delirium. ;) Either way, everything looks grand and I wish you a great show!
