Holiday Blahs/Blues

The holidays have finally passed and I'm trying to motivate to gear up for a new show.  I've found it a little depressing that any show in which I feel my product may sell has thru the roof booth fees.  I've looked at three for March and not one of them have fees less than $100.00!  For someone just starting out, that hurts.

It's almost the end of January and I need to start gearing up my crafting.  I've decided I'm not going to pursue the hat stand market and must find something on which to concentrate.  I'm leaning toward children's items because it seems an easy sell but I think I'm compromising my talent.  I'm still really happiest working with clay but haven't come up with anything very marketable.  I will continue to test and see what happens.

In the meantime, here's a pic to show you where I spend most of my time.  I have 2 furry children that demand alot of playtime!  TC is on the left and the youngster on the right  is Amos.  They spend a lot of time staring at birds that dare to eat from a nearby feeder.



OK, playtime's over.  Back to work!  Come visit my Etsy site and check out some of my favorites.  There's a lot of cool stuff in this world and you can find or request just about anything your little heart desires on Etsy.

Happy Crafting!
