Holiday Craft & Vendor Fair: October 2011

Today, I had a table set up at a Holiday Craft and Vendor Fair I do every year. Unfortunately, I am beginning to wonder if it's worth the expense to reserve a spot anymore. The first year I did it, people were practically bursting through the doors to check out what everyone was showcasing. Not anymore. Sadly, the last couple of years, the Vendors have outnumbered the customers. I didn't even sell enough to cover the cost of the spot (plus, I bought my lunch while I was there).

Since I haven't posted anything in a while, I thought I would share some pictures from the event as well as some of the things I made for it (and didn't sell). If you are interested in any of the pieces or would like to inquiry about a custom one, please leave a comment below.

The round, Flower Pendants (in Vintage Copper and Vintage Bronze) are $18. The Heart Pendants are $12. The Heart and Rectangle Magnets are $5. All of these prices include shipping! At the moment, I accept Paypal only.

Making custom, personalized gifts for my friends and family has always been a passion of mine. So is writing. What better way to combine my two favorite hobbies than with a blog…or two? In addition to Matter of Crafts, which is "officially" launching today, I am also the Owner/Writer for Matter of Cents.

I have a lot of plans for this blog. I hope you will take the time to look around, after everything is all set up, and let me know if there is anything I can make for you or a loved one.
