Getting Ready for the Snowflake!


Just a few days to go until the Snowflake Bazaar. Yesterday, I finally put price tags on my items and today I will attempt to fit-in last-minute painting and glittering in between all of the usual Mommy stuff. The room we affectionately refer to as the Girly Office is looking more like the Girly Garage.





I love these little tags that Shellie made for me.


I am a big fan of branding (as goofy as that might sound) so I have (minty fresh!) cards and magnets ready.


My pretty organized gift sets. Sets include 1 tin can, 3 clothespins, 1 painted pencil and 1 painted seashell (perfect for paper clips).


My sister Betsy will visit from NJ this weekend and asked if I could do something with her plain wooden tray. A little paint and some decoupage and it is on its way to being shabbified!


While all the supplies are out, I thought I'd tinker with an autumn berry wreath that had seen its last Fall. Hmmm? Maybe some glitter? Is it working?

Any advice about being a vendor at a craft fair is not only welcome, it is being requested! Thank you to all my bloggerette pals for all of your encouragement and support! xo

When my bags were sold, I put a "SOLD" tag on them, still display them & the nice buyers pick up their bags later in the day. Similar to what Vintage Amethyst said, I think this encourage buyers & browsers. A notepad for people to fill up, to get on yr mailing list, for future events like this.
