Well friends, I did it. My first Indie market is over.
I had business cards and everything. Pretty official...thanks to my sweet dad.
I spent the first hour thinking about how much I wanted to go home where I'd be safe from the terrible wind, but it got better. There was an odd lady wondering around downtown and I suppose she felt sorry for me because my stuff was blowing around and off my table. She found me some strange metal display "things" in a nearby dumpster and brought them to me to hold my stuff down. It was a very sweet gesture and I genuinely thanked her for her thoughtfulness. I used them for a very brief amount of time.
Did I mention it was also freezing?
I sold some earrings and wreaths. Enough to cover the cost of the booth, make a little profit, and draw me back there next month.
It's so nice to be home and WARM and I'm excited to have one market under my belt.
how cool is that!? and isn't it supposed to be hot in n.c.? just wondering :)
ReplyDeleteIt's SUPPOSED to be warm, unfortunately this week has been miserably cold :o( I survived though....and warm weather is on it's sweet way!
