Merry Spring!

What a nice week it's been so far.  We started off by finishing up the tax work and unpacking from the show, a little at a time.  No big rush now that the show's over. It feels so good to relax again.I'm working on some orders for most of the week, which is also nice.   I finished a luminary shop order yesterday, plus these eggs for a sweet deerfield friend, as they sold out before she got any.  I also wrote the tutorial while it was fresh on my mind!    

Today I'm making chicks in skirts and turnips, also both for orders.... they all sold out at Deerfield.    Tommorrow I hope to take another trip to Crossroads with some more signs and some spring prims for the garden room.  The back door is open and the fresh air feels good.  I hope it's nice where you are!   

Deerfield Spring Sampler Craft Fair

Thank you, thank you everyone who came out to see us.... It is such a tremendous rush to see you all, always, but even more so after being cooped up and enduring this harsh winter. I have come home with a very happy heart tonight.

It was an exhilarating but exhausting day. One more day to go 10 - 5 Sunday.. My  friend Linda and my son Josh were wonderful... such a tremendous help. I am so greatful for their support! It was a bit overwhelming at times even with their help! We were crushed with customers as soon as the doors opened and it continued like that for hours.

I still have some great pieces left, but it's definately thinned out a lot which will make packing to go home so much easier! That's a beautiful thing!

I've taken a few orders for things that were snatched up, and am willing to do a few more before starting in the gardens.   Also I have some more Easter things at Crossroad in Somers, Ct. 

A couple of booth pictures.... not the best, but whatever. I spent a bit too much time gabbing and forgot to take pictures til the doors opened. I had to move quickly at that point!

I jam-pack my booth for a show like this, because there is no way to refill once it gets busy.  If it looks cluttery that's why.  Almost everything I made for the show is out.... 

Well off to be a couch potato for a little while!

The van is packed and we are almost ready for Deerfield this weekend. 
I'm still pricing and signing some creations. 
Just like christmas shopping, always at the last moment, even if I say I'll do better next time! 

Deerfield Spring Sampler

Hope you'll Bee there :-) We can be found in booth 106.

 

I've been working on prim dolls, birds and bunnies, feedsacks, bees and flowers for the show.
We're going to be blessed with a warm sunny weekend, after a snowstorm during setup. Hopefully this will be the last snow.... we've all had enough already!

Olde Eggs Printable Label Freebie

just a little something for your Easter decorating....
I'm using this design for Easter bucket labels and muslin sacks for eggs. Thought I'd share it with you so you can make some too!
Enjoy!

in the meantime I've been working hard on wholesale orders and preparing for Deerfield Spring Sampler, just around the corner.... Can't wait for the show.   I will also bring another batch of things to Crossroads this week.  

 Should you need tickets for Deerfield I have some extras, let me know!
