Indie Sacramento January

I had such a great time at the last one I am doing it again. I hope you all will join me!

My First Craft Show

Hi, it has been a while since I posted, so I thought I would give you a recap on my first craft show. I participated in the Indie Sacramento, the amazingly organizied Craft Fair, and it was a huge success. I was a little nervous, and everything went without a hitch!!! My big sellers were my Crocheted Hand Warmers, the Cool Corseted Coffee Cuffs, and the Pretty Pin Cushions. The Scoodies were very much an attraction, but I only sold One. It seemed like the lower priced items sold most. I had a great time, met some really nice people, bought some cool stuff, and sold quite a bit of my work, I really couldn't ask for more. And guess what? What? you say. If you missed this show, Indie Sac has decided to do monthly shows and I will be participating in the January show. Keep posted for the date, time and location. Thank you all for your support-Julie

Best Laid Plans...

I tried to take Darek's pic at breakfast, and this is the best I got! I had planned to pop out of bed this morning, down some coffee and get to work crafting. Well, I popped out of bed and started the coffee, when my husband, Darek, said "let's go out to breakfast". I was like aaaah, I really need to get more pieces done for the craft bazaar I am doing in TWO WEEKS, but I love going out to breakfast. So to breakfast we went, followed by one of our other favorite things to do, a trip to the bookstore.

Going to the bookstore kind of takes my husband and I back to the beginning of building WOWzzy.com , before we had our large office and employees, when this huge part of our lives was just a twinkle in Darek's eye. So while he worked on work that CEO's work on, I crocheted wrist warmers for my business.

I was planning on posting a tute for these really cool earrings I created the other day, so that will have to be saved for tomorrow. So check back, I really think you are going to love this really easy technique.

Some of my Crafty goodness for Indie Sacramento, Sacramento's largest trunk show and craft bazaar. When: December 6, 2008, 10am to 6pm, Where: 2409 J Street, Sacramento, CA indiesacramento.com

Getting ready for the Indie Sacramento Craft Show

O.K., so I signed up to show my creations at the Indie Sacramento, I really wanted to be a part of this show, but I was turned down. I was really bummed and i come from a place that everything happens for a reason, so I graciously put my name on the waiting list. Not more than a few hours later there was a cancellation and I was in. The big challenge is that there is only three weeks to prepare for the show, so needless to say I have been very,very busy. I want to show you my daily progress and would love feedback on my creations. I promise to write everyday, if you promise to look, deal?, deal!
