Rainy Day Art booth

Monday, August 16, 2010

This weekend was my first time to have a booth at the Pepper Place Farmers Market. I have been getting ready for this weekend for a very long time. Plenty of crafting, painting, sewing, stamping and gluing has been going on non stop over it mi casa.

And what happened this weekend you ask..... well it poured down rain of course. There were a total of a bout 30 people at the market. Haha not exactly what I expected. Oh and get this, it was the very first weekend of the entire market, which began in May, that rained. Lily and I came straight home to research some ancient anti-ran dances to do for next weekend.

Needless to say it was not a huge success, but I learned a lot and I look forward to 5 more weekends of sunny days (fingers crossed). Here are a few pictures of my booth set up, and some of the items I brought. I would say the mustaches on a stick and herb garden spokes were favorites by far.

DIY- a craft extravaganza

Very soon I will be moving back home to Birmingham. I am excited/nervous/sad. I will be leaving my boyfriend here in Tuscaloosa while he finishes up his master's in Biology. Gavin is my number one supporter so its going to be a little tough without him. On the excited side, I will be moving to a larger city with tons of art, excitement, jobs and new friends. Actually I have very few friends in Birmingham so I'm very anxious to get to the city and explore. I will also be on the search for a job, gosh I'm already graduating from college, its seems so surreal.


Anywho, once I move back to town I will be a nanny for my younger cousin. I thought I would take this splendid opportunity to create as many crafts as I can with her. I soon plan to open a community craft/vintage/art collective shop downtown, so this will be the perfect opportunity to try out some young kid crafts. Here is a small list I have come up with. (with images) I will be posting DIY steps and pics to all of these endeavors upon completion.

1. Dream Shadow Box
