Back from a Craft Show


I used to do craft shows all the time, about 15-20 a year (before I had a child) and I haven't done any major show for about 8 years. I started going to bigger shows again this year and I didn't know how much I missed it. I came home last night after a 2 day monster craft fair and I told my husband, I missed my Gypsy friends. I cant even describe the instant (and I mean instantly at 6:30 AM on Saturday) friendships that form with the booths next to you and across the aisle. We don't know each others names right away or where we live but in two days we all know everything. I took Juliann on Sunday and she went from booth to booth and sat with different people, learning about what they do and how they do it. The candle guy next to me had her smelling candles with her eyes closed to see what 'flavor' it was.

I sell jewelry with lamp work beads that I make at these shows. I will have a link to some jewelry later today.
