Craft Fair Season

The fall craft fair season started with a gust and a sprinkle.

My husband helped me last night (his first full event) as we set up my tables at an outdoor fair in some serious wind. It was a mess and I was afraid to put half of my product out because they would be blown away like Dorothy's house. So we decided to move next to a building where the wind was blocked. As we moved and started setting up again, it rained.

Ugh and my gosh.

But eventually the rain stopped and we set up with no problems. I still kept my paper fortunes for handing out in the car because any gusts and they would have surely been a thing of the past and not of the future.

We had a great time chatting with people. We saw someone we knew, saw a few people who looked extremely familiar and met people we hope to see again.

These craft fairs aren't always profitable for me but they open doors to future sales and overall, it's just nice chatting with people and hanging out with my husband -- or my mom who usually does fairs with me.

So, if you were one of the folks who stopped by and picked up a business card, it was nice seeing you and I hope to see you again.
