    The holiday craft show is this Saturday & I seem to be farther behind than usual in preparing for it. I have a list with only a few things crossed off & others that are almost done, but never seem to get finished. Maybe they will all get done at the same time? I need to load the car on Thurs. and set-up is Friday afternoon, so I'm down to the wire here. Eeeeeeekkk!!!
       Last year I made a decent profit at "Christmas in the Barn", but this year, with the slow economy, I'll be happy if I just make back my table fee. I'm going to reduce prices on some of the older works & am considering having a 10% off sale the last 2 hours of the show. For the first time they are having a door prize raffle, so I'm contributing one of my eagle prints
    ,which might make folks curious to see my other work if they notice it on the table.
       There will be about 50 vendors in 2 sections of the church buildings, plus a dining area where people can buy homemade soup & cookies, which is extremely popular. The show runs from 9am to 3pm and it's a festive & fun atmosphere. I'll post some pics next week. My sister will be helping me pack up afterwards, thankfully.
       Wish me luck!

  • Please DO take pics!!!!!!

  • Jacks-!  Is the painting of elves also yours-?  That's really cute.  I like that you also work with black/white images... Whether your eagle is charcoal or paint, I'm unsure.  I've been doing charcoal lately.  Good luck with the show!

  • The elves are not mine, I don't do humans, whatever their height. I jst wanted something busy & Christmas-sy.
    The eagle is from a pen & ink drawing, which I took to the printer & they made reproprints of it. This was before I had a computer & I wanted a higher quality print than a xerox.

  • I do wish you well. From parking lots around here I'd say charge cards are being used by quite a few.
