Maryland Spring Craft Recap


As promised,  photos! This was the first year that we  attended both weekends and we will do it again next year. I always love this show because of all the kind and wonderful people we meet, both artists and customers. I just want to say another thank you to all of you I had the chance to chat with and get to know!  I also left  (of course) with some lovely items from other vendors including an awesome glow bowl from White Caterpillar, a gorgeous Japanese maple leaf necklace from MetalledWith, the loveliest soaps from Possum Hollow Farm Soap, and a to-die-for scrumptious Chocolate body scrub from Down to Earth Body Shop. Check them out if you get the chance, you won't regret it!

It's really tiring and a lot of work getting ready for a five day show but after each day and realizing how many awesome people I had the chance to really talk to and connect with, I know I wouldn't trade this for anything :).  During this last month of preparation, I have really moved my designs into some new territory. I realized  that in just a few weeks I'll be celebrating my official one year with my new collections. Changing my business image and work  has been both a crazy and rewarding journey and I'm super excited to begin this second year of shows. 

Come visit us  at Loch Raven High School and show your support for keeping Craft Shows alive in Baltimore County Public Schools!

Happily exhausted


Hi everyone! So I've done it again: neglected to blog in my insanity of preparing for my shows! Well tonight I don't even have the energy to load photos, but I will tomorrow when I get the chance. I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to all the wonderful new people I met and had a chance to chat with these last two weekends! Such a lovely show. What I will post tonight is what awaited me on the front page of Etsy when I came home: The prettiest treasury of Asian art inspired beauties! Now I'm off to make up for my lack of sleep this past month. See you all in the morning!
