books & ribbons & price tags, oh my!(notice the puppy keeping me company)
working hard
lots of books!
watching some quality tv (ncis)one of the nice things about prepping for a show (besides all of the necessary coffee drinking), is getting to see all of the products i've made. as i packaged books, i looked at the stacks and stacks of bright, festive books and realized that i've done a lot of beautiful work. that sense of accomplishment is SO satisfying.
the morning of the show, as i was setting up, i was nervous. and this happens with every show. "what if people don't show up? what if lots of people show up, but no one buys anything from me?" lots of "what if's" pop up in my mind...i'm a bit of a worrier, if you couldn't tell.
the show itself was excellent - it was packed friday night! tons of wonderful vendors to visit and lots of great people visited my table. saturday was busy too, very steady. i did get a chance to look at a few of the other artists work (WOW!) and bought a few goodies for myself :) i'll post my goodies later.
the puppy was so sweet - he actually stayed out in the living room with me while i worked into the wee hours. he slept on his bed and would get up and check on me every once in a while.
time to do some sales analysis!

wow, you look SO organized - i'm terribly impressed.
It's embarrassing how scattered I am, running around, kicking up stuff wherever I go. Like the crafty version of Pigpen in the Peanut Gallery. Yikes.
don't be too hard on yourself! keep in mind this was like 1am the night before the show! we should form some sort of procrastination club.
