Craft Shows


I am just back from my third holiday show in 10 days. It was fun and I enjoy meeting the other vendors and finding out what people are doing to be creative and give a piece of themselves to the world. The world of craft shows is for those of us who create and for the world around us that wants to be a part of this and support our talent. This is a beautiful thing to watch. This is why I go to the Farmer's Market regularly and why I buy from other local vendors. Without sounding preachy, I will say that it feels like a win-win situation.

This blog post is dedicated to Jessica, who I met today. She reminded me of why I like to/need to blog. Sometimes I think that no one reads this, but she set me straight today. Thank you!

Yours in chocolate!

Hi Emily! It was nice chatting with you yesterday. I really like your table set up...very pretty display.

I like craft shows for that reason too. I especially like the one at work because it's so neat to see the hidden talents of people you normally only talk business with. If it wasn't for the craft show, I might not have known all the crafty talents that my coworkers are so gifted with.

Keep up the good work on the blog. I think it's great when crafters have blogs, because you get to hear a little of the voice behind the product, in a different way than you would by just reading their Web site.

Have a great holiday season!

Jessica
