Special Canvas bags

   Today I went for a long walk with a friend, made a trip to the craft store and then crafted. I'm selling at a new local market on October 1st that I'm pretty darn excited about. I'll be sharing a tent with one of my dearest friends and she has been creating some really adorable stuff. The thought of selling beside all her fabulousness has inspired me to try my hand at some new crafts to sell. So far, I've used fabric and embroidery floss to make these canvas bags a bit more special.

I love canvas bags. 

They're perfect for carrying all the necessary items for a day trip, stuff for school, or as a purse.

One can never have too many bags right?

And the frayed fabric edges add just enough hand crafted quality. 

What do y'all think???

My First Indie Market

    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.
