Wow! This has been a busy fall season. Â Here’s a recap of what I did after the IHE summer show:
10/3/09 – INDIEana Handicraft Exchange – This is a fantastic group of local artists and crafters using traditional crafting techniques mixed with a contemporary edge.  It’s a great feeling to be in the presence of so many talented individuals!  The picture at right is from the event.
10/31/09 – INDIEana Handicraft Exchange “Mini” at Irvington Halloween Festival – Â 30 vendors from the IHE set up our tables in a huge tent during this festival. Â It was a chilly day but lots of fun in a great neighborhood.
11/14/09 – Lawrence Central Craft Boutique – This event featured over 100 booths, and a fleet of super nice volunteers. Â Great customers, too!
So what’s up next for me? Â A break from shows and working from my Etsy shop. Â I’ll have Beaded Bookmark Belts and Planet Crayons posted to give you plenty of time to order for the holidays. Â The Bookmark Belts make excellent gifts alone or paired with a book or bookstore gift card. Â Planet Crayons are fun stocking stuffers.
I also wanted to mention my favorite booth partner, Martha, of Sunday Afternoon Housewife. Â She makes beautiful jewelry using tiles from my favorite game: Scrabble!
