Fall Shows and Fun Stuff!

Is everyone keeping warm today??

It's awfully chilly in my neck of the woods. A good day for tea, soup, and sewing! Which is what I've been doing a lot of!

October 29th I will at the Upcycled Art Show at Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY! I hope to see you all there!

I am also working on new items for the Mayday! Underground Show in Rochester, NY on November 5th!

Also, the first 50 customers will receive swag bags at the door filled with lots of goodies, including a coupon from me that can only be used at Mayday! So don't miss out!

Get a peek at what I've been working on!

Another plastic bag creation!

Back of a new top!

On another note, I am going to Pittsburgh this weekend with my cousin! I think it's going to be a great time! Meet some new people maybe network a little bit, who knows! Either way it'll be nice to get away for some fun! I'm sure, I'll update you with some photos when I return!

I hope everyone is having a good week!

Life

Sometimes ones life starts the process of passing away. This is happening to a loved one of mine. She's 90 years old and she has lived a wonderfully love filled life. Things will be hard for the next few days so I apologize for any lack of updates.

I am however, trying to maintain somewhat a normal life in order to stay at least somewhat sane. Today I followed another nail tutorial from Lipgloss & Black.

It's pretty cool, honestly not one of my favorite but it was really simple and the result is relatively interesting.

I sent out a few applications and other necessary items for upcoming shows and I got a confirmation to the Mayday! Underground Craft and Arts Sale on November 5th in Rochester. I did that show on April 30th and I did SO great there so I look forward to hitting it up again!

I must go for now. I hope everyone has a good week. Welcome Fall.

Happy May!!

I had a great time at the Mayday! Underground Sale! Met a lot of great folks including this great artist - Robert Frank. I bought a few things from him. His work is just SO amazing!

My booth space was great, I requested to be near the restroom so that people could try items on if they wanted to and that's just where they placed me. It worked out really wonderfully. Quite a few lovely ladies tried items on which was so exciting for me. It just makes me so happy when people enjoy the work that I have done. Here are a few shots from my travels.

The hotel room

Me in the hotel!

The tall building is where the show was at. Super sweet!

A great open layout.

Rochester Bound.

Good morning all.

This morning I am preparing to start my travel to Rochester for the Mayday! Underground Sale! I couldn't be more excited! A little getaway all by my lonesome plus an awesome show to sell at!? What could be better!? I am staying in a quaint hotel, by quaint I just mean the cheapest, non insect infested place I could find. Haha.
Either way, I am ecstatic for this trip. I plan to leave about noon so I can get to the hotel and relax all evening, hopefully in the pool or gym...if it has either. I haven't even checked.
I am also so happy about my new hair. I took a few more photos like I promised.
Check it out!!

It's longer on one side.

This isn't the greatest photo but I think you can tell mostly what my hair is like. It's really short in the back which is great for summer!


Once again, don't forget about Mayday! Underground this Saturday!!

Can't wait to see you there!!

It smells like Summer

Today my wonderful Mother and I had some bonding/pampering time. This is a big deal because she rarely does anything for herself, and I mean anything. So I convinced her that it was a good idea to get pedicures and our hair done! I am also guilty of not doing anything for myself and a pedicure is a big step for me. In fact today's pedicure is probably only my 3rd in my lifetime. I just don't like spending the money. Anyway, check out my toenails, I asked them to paint my logo on them!

We also ate some watermelon, a sure sign of Summer!!

I've never been any good at cutting watermelon, I just sort of go at it with a knife and eat chunks of it off the knife. It's so delicious.


We also got our hair done. I like mine a lot. It's not too terribly different, mostly just shorter in the back. What do you think?

I know you can't see it all that well, maybe I'll post more later of a better angle. Mostly I just wanted to show off Mama again.

I'm a newbie.

I joined the newbie party!! Woohoo!





Fun fun.

This is going to be a short post, I just wanted to remind you all of the Mayday! Sale this Saturday! Come out and see all the wonderful artists!!

Mayday! Sale Prep.

So yesterday I set up my booth in my living room just to see how it would look and to decide if I had to make any adjustments.

This is what I came up with:

I think I like it pretty well. More than likely when I get to the show this weekend I'll make some changes but as of now, I like it. Obviously you can't see the clothes rack in these photos but it's to the right of the big table.

What do you think?

I'm sure I'll be doing some sewing today, hopefully some handsewing outdoors because it is SO nice out!!

Enjoy the day!!

much love

Mayday! Underground this weekend!

I cannot wait for the Mayday! Sale this weekend in Rochester, NY. There will be so many great vendors and talented artists! I hope to see everyone there!

Today I am going to adjust my display to make it the best possible! It's pretty nice outside this morning so I'm pretty excited to spend some time outdoors setting everything up.

I hope you all have a lovely day!!
