Quote Me On This...

...I will never do Eagle Mills Craft Fair again...ok, well maybe...it's just not likely. This is the worst I have ever done at this particular craft fair and I just feel it was a waste. I didn't do well, to say the least. Sometimes I think my "crafts" are way to trendy for a craft fair that is mostly country. I do not make those welcome signs and birdhouses. I don't do snowmen and american flag stuff. I am all about upcycling cereal boxes and sewing pretty aprons with modern fabric. I make wine stoppers with golf balls and purses with license plates. I make notecards and envelopes with leftover mail and magazines and table runners with a French printed look. I embelish onesies with adorable ties. I do not make country type crafts. Which means I do not make a profit. I make napkins with Audrey Hepburn on them. I think I live in the wrong place. Or is it me? It can't be...I refuse to believe... All I know is I watched a bunch of people buy the ugliest crap I have ever seen (geez, I can only wonder how their homes are decorated), and watched them look at my stuff and be in awe and adore the uniqueness...smile, but not purchase...

"All I know is I watched a bunch of people buy the ugliest crap I have ever seen" Ken says that is the best line EVER! and so true. I'm sorry that it was bad for you. I love your stuff. The problem is YOU MAKE ART NOT CRAFTS! You should be proud of your beautiful work. You are so creative and talented!
BTW I love the new picture and the play on words.
