New Booth

A few weeks ago I bought a trimline canopy, and the investment was well worth it. It's bright, beautiful, sturdy, and not too difficult to set up. I got it because of its durability, but the weather at last weekend's Williamson Apple Blossom Festival was picture-perfect.
Here are the pics:

Notice how the walls almost glow when the sun is out? And notice the vent at the end of the top in the first photo? It lets a nice, cool breeze through the tent. The guys at www.flourish.com really know what they're doing!

It's showtime!

It's almost showtime! I know because I'm racing around attending to all those last minute details in the order they pop into my head. Water in the refrig. Check. Sand bags in the truck. Check. Bead sets priced. Check. 

I probably won't rest until I've set up my booth and realized that one thing I've forgotten (hopefully only one thing!) and that I won't die without it.

Can't wait until tomorrow!

Here's a sneak peek of some new items: organic pendants and hearts.

Come see me at the Apple Blossom Festival, say "It's showtime" and get 10% off!

Thank you to all the Mayday Attendees!

Mayday Underground was a success!
We had a steady stream of attendees and I heard lots of positive feedback on the quality of the vendors. I also received lots of complements on my pendants and loose beads for sale, and better yet had lots of buyers.
Thank you to everyone who came to the show, everyone who commented on my beads, and especially to everyone who loved them enough to part with valuable cash to take them home.

These are now sold! Thank you!

The Pendant Game

Here's some of the new pendant designs I'm working on, bad photography and all:

Somehow I managed to order glass rods that are either too small or too big to make the pendants I originally intended. And the murrini wasn't nearly thin enough. So, perfectionist that I am, I put in an order for yet more glass. Funny, I do the same thing with seed beads. Not the perfect color? Buy more! Good for art. Bad for the wallet.

At least I found out that my little torch will cut through 1" clear rods. Good to know.

My first show of the year is in one week! MayDay Underground - April 28 at The Village Gate in Rochester.

See the NEW Show Schedule section to the right? Now you'll know where I'll be this summer. Just in case you see something you like....
