6 Days to the first Craft Show!

That is right - in 6 days I'm taking the leap from online sales to local, in person, table-top selling! I'm so excited!

I've always had some of the necessary ingredients for being an entrepreneurial crafter... I have 1) had a steady stream of creative projects flowing since earlier than I can remember, and 2) attempted to make sales. Not always successfully. I remember one ill-advised roadside stand I set up when I was 7 or 8 to sell the shed exoskeletons of cicadas... I believe they were going for 1 cent each, but for some reason the only person who bought one was my 4 year old sister.

But now we're actually making it official- tax reg. and all. And insects (at least for now!) are not part of the inventory. So, without further ado:

Cabin Fever Crafters Show
First Congregational Church
Saturday March 6, 2010 9am - 2pm
43 Silver St, Greenfield, MA 01376

I know a few other great vendors who will be attending, so come and join us if you are in the area!

In the meantime there is a lot to do. I'm knitting as fast as I am able (later shows this summer will focus on my artwork instead), making labels and working on setting up an attractive table. This show is a small one which will be ideal for my first attempt.... what fun!
