SCRAPBOOK EXPO

Earlier this month I went with a friend to the Scrapbook Expo in Ontario, Ca.  It's not like I've never been to one before.  I've been plenty of times and even participated in a few as a vendor.  But I have to say that I still enjoy them and always manage to find new and nifty products to spend my hard-earned money on!  My only complaint has been the lack of time to sit down and do the cool make and takes offered by many of the vendors.  This time it was different.  We were actually able to do a few and it was sure fun!  I loved being able to sit down and be waited on for a change.  Don't get me wrong.  I love my job teaching paper arts at Michaels.  But I sure could get used to being a student now and then too!  Check out one of the little cuties we made.....I love, love, love the vintage Halloween look, don't you?

An Affaire at the Barn



Tomorrow I'll be selling my handmade and vintage crafts at the Affaire at the Barn event in Menifee, California.  This will be my second time selling there and I'm super excited.  I love the ladies at Pikin Chix, the sponsor of this event and always enjoy picking through all their cool junk at the Raw Materials Sales they put on about every month.  I've been working hard, creating lots of beautiful crafts and can't wait to see them on the tables, ready for an enthusiastic customer to fall in love with them!  I'm especially excited to debut my little snowmen and snowomen made with bottles, bling and vintage tidbits!  They even have names!
