The Mad Rush


It has been crazy around here ! I have been working my bottom off trying to get stocked up for the upcoming craft fairs . On top of that my laptop died , I had to get a new one !  The software program I used to make our postcards , business cards , and hangtags is no longer compatible  with this new computer. I had to buy a new one of those also. And it’s different too ! Having to learn how to use it to get what I want is taking much more time than I want to spend on it .
Okay , I’m done complaining now !
I’ll show you some of the things I have been working on .
There are tote bags…

I almost don’t want to sell this last one…

Then there are some keepsake/jewelry boxes made from silverware boxes…

I made a few vignette boxes from old sewing machine drawers…

They come with a book bundle and a sprig of dried hydrangea .
Then I made some pillows…

The graphics are from Graphiques and The Graphic Fairy.
And now I am working on some lighted garlands like this one…

Some will have tags , some won’t .
I made a few dolls and teddy bears earlier in the summer  so they will go along too .
We just have a little under 2 weeks till our first
 show ,  so I am frantically trying to get more stuff
 done .
And then I am hoping it will sell !
I hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend !

  2. Looks to me like you're getting lots done. I'm impressed that you even try to make your cards & tags. I've tried but end up giving up. Good luck with your shows....just hope it cools a bit. Hope you can make it to Leola's this weekend. Jan
