Tomorrow marks the end of my FIRST month of blogging, something I thought I would never do! I just want to share some of the highlights of the last month. SCROLL FOR THE HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!
I copied my Frog Features Page. These features have had my head spinning with excitement and delighted! I am incredibly honored to have been featured and mentioned on these various blogs and websites. I am not sure that I will ever be able to find the words to describe how ecstatic I am that other people think that my crafts and creations are worth being shared with others. THANK YOU!

Words cannot describe how much I appreciate all of the craft love from you guys!! I feel so absolutely amazing!! THANK YOU EVERYONE!
AND NOW, AS IF THAT WERE NOT ENOUGH. THE MOMENT I HAVE BEEN WAITING MONTHS FOR, FINALLY ARRIVED IN MY MAIL BOX YESTERDAY!
Back in March after I decided to try to start my own little business with my craftastic creations, I applied to be in a craft show. I was so nervous hand delivering my application! I asked the sweet lady how long it might be before I would know if my application was accepted and she said 2 weeks. For a terribly impatient person 2 weeks seemed like an eternity but I figured I could handle it. Well, that 2 weeks came and went. And then another and another and another. OMGoodness, patience is a virtue but I have none! Then yesterday, after daily sprints to the mail box for 14 weeks a letter came in the mail for me. My heart about BURST while I opened it. And guess what? I made it in to the craft show. I even got the space I requested! I was overjoyed and almost started crying from all the happiness swarming my head. September 16, 17, 18th the FROG will be crafting up a storm at the Blue Springs Fall Fun Festival! OMGoodness, I am SUPER EXCITED.
And scared! I have never been a vendor at a craft show before. I have no idea where to even start!
Have you ever done a craft show?
Have you ever done a craft show?
HELP ME PLEASE!
Give me all the advice you have got and keep it coming!!
wow thats fantastic news that you got into the craft show! You will be great im sure. I have only done craft shows in the uk and im sure the us ones are far better, but i guess my advice is the same. Presentation is key show your talent off to its best and nice decorations attract people to your stand. Take plenty of spare stock to put out once you start selling, to smile and talk about your work to your customers im sure they will love to hear how you made it. Oh and i am very forgetful so i always have a list of things i need to remember to take like cash box and a tablecloth (which i still managed to forget at my last show!)Im sure it will be a huge success.Good Luck! x
