Working on Craft Fair Stuff!

I don't know what I've gotten myself into! I've signed up for not one, but TWO craft fairs. One on October 18th in Kenton, Ohio and one November 8th in Columbus, Ohio! I've never done one before where I could actually sell stuff so I'm furiously working to have a nice variety of gifts, stocking-stuffers and other hand-stamped items. I think my mom might be sending some of her hand-made decorative pillows for me to sell as well! She does the best work- my kids' beds (and mine too) are loaded with pillows from grandma. She even made all new pillow covers & coordinating throw pillows for our couch and loveseat!

For those of you who have asked (multiple times in some cases) if I would ever consider selling my cards... well, now the answer is finally YES! My stash is way bigger than I could ever send and while many of these are my favorites, it is time to say goodbye. I will have a LOT of cards for sale!


So far I have also made tile coaster sets, small tile magnets and luggage tags for suitcases, backpacks, diaper bags and more! This is just in the last three days! PHEW! I've got plans to make much more and a huge list that I could never possibly accomplish, but it's OK to dream, right?! I'll post pics as often as I can in the coming days and weeks.


If you are interested in attending either of these locations feel free to leave a comment or contact me and I'll get more information to you. I'm sure I'll post more details as the days get closer as well.


So far I only have pictures of the luggage tags I made yesterday so I'll post that now. Sorry I'm not going to list all my supplies for these but I can tell you that everything except for about 2 strands of ribbon are by Stampin' Up! In fact, it's only the white and offwhite ribbons on the "Game On" tag that are not SU. I have no idea if these will sell or not, but I'm thinking I might take my alpha stamps along and offer to customize them on the spot (on the back of course). What do you think? Any suggestions? I have three left that I can make but I got sick of them yesterday!
Thanks for stopping by!
