craft show recap

Craft Show 022

Craft Show 001

On Saturday Mom and I participated in the Woodlake Apples and Arts Craft Show. It was a lovely experience! We met some nice people! Some of our friends stopped by to support us!

...and saw some friends from the Petersburg Farmers' Market...

Rabbit Hill Farm

Rabbit Hill Farm was there selling yummy baked goods! Debbie and her daughter, Sydney, are fantastic people! I don't know how they do all that they do! They have animals, bake, make gourd Santas, and much more. Debbie even works full-time too! They are a great mother-daughter team. Mom and I can relate to that working relationship too!

Craft Show 009

It was a nice day. Dynamo was so kind to come and help us set up and take down. I don't know if any of you have every done a craft show, but it's a lot of work to create, pack, setup, take down, and unpack!

The bonus...Dynamo took me to Bonefish after the show!! Yummy!!

almost time...

...for the craft show tomorrow!!

Soap Sampler

I've been putting the finishing touches on things including making some soap sampler bundles and labeling all of my soap!

Lavender Chamomile Soap

I really think it makes a difference to label everything individually. That way if someone gives the soap as a gift and the person wants more then they can find it easily because my contact info is on there.

Wakeup Soap

I even made a couple more wreaths!

Hopefully, there's a little something for everyone when they stop by the booth!

Momma is bringing her beautiful recycled plastic bottle flowers, which are totally awesome!

So, wish me luck! And...if you're in the area stop by the Apples and Arts Craft Show at Woolridge Elementary in Midlothian from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. tomorrow!

pastels are pretty

Pastel Rug 1

Well, I finished another rug. This one is very pastel and spring-like!

Pastel Rug 2

The colors are so happy!

Pastel Rug 3

I enjoyed making this one because there wasn't much restriction on the colors. I could use all my colorful sheets and fabrics and they all went perfectly together!

Pastel Rug 4

This rug would be a great bathroom rug or in a little girls' room!

Pastel Rug 5

Happy!!

Pastel Rug 6

So, right now I'm up to 4 completed rugs!

Rug Collection 2

Whew! And...guess what? Dynamo made me another loom!!! :) This one is a little smaller, so now I can have two sizes to offer! He's so talented. It's amazing how he can just look at something and make it! I'm so blessed to have a bike mechanic, carpenter, and just all-around can build anything/fix anything hubby! And...when Dynamo makes something it's done with 110% heart. It will be perfect!

He still says I'm running a sweatshop in our house! It's so crazy I know! I'm trying to make sure I have enough inventory! I always want people to be overwhelmed and have plenty of choices! I can't wait to show you more broaches/pins I've been working on. And...I've got to get busy making more wreaths!

So..the craft show is called Apples and Arts and is on November 12, at Woolridge Elementary (Richmond/Chesterfield)! We'll be there from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Please stop by if you're in the area...even if it's just to say hi!!
