Wow....

I had no idea it had been 2 months so I last blogged. Time flies....

So I guess I am well past due on an update.

I have actually already done my first show on May 4th - and to be honest it was a bust. I have 2 more days at this same event so I am hopeful that the other days will go better.

We did in fact make it into Comfest. I have been busy making items for this event. I have so many ideas of things that I want to create - there just are not enough hours in the day right now. Comfest will be held in Goodale Park here in Columbus June 27, 28, and 29th. If you are in or around the area, please stop by and say hello! I plan on being at the event Friday and Saturday for sure - and most likely Sunday as well. My attendance on Sunday will be dependent on how much inventory I have left at that point to be honest.

I will be posting some new pictures after Comfest - either here or to my Flickr account and hopefully I will have some new items to list as well in my Etsy shop.

I have been accepted to the Etsy Beadweavers team! This is very exciting for me - please take a look at their blog - which is listed on the right side of the page. There is some really amazing talent there - more than once I have had my jaw drop at some of the creations these ladies are making!!!! I highly encourage you to check it out!

I am off to bed for now. Hopefully there will be pictures to post soon!

Lemme try that again -- with better spelling! Jules -- Easton Art Affair doesn't kick off until 4 p.m. on Friday, so I'll try to get set up early enough to swing by Comfest. Good luck with the show!

Sorry to hear that the first day was a bust. Hope you have good sales on the last 2 days and on the comfest.

Julie said...

Thanks for the info Kerrie - I didn't know that. Still new to the group and all - so I am still learning the ropes!

Julie said...

Thanks you Frances! I would love to be able to meet you! The hours for Comfest are LONG! Starts around 9 or 10AM and runs until 11PM. (Also part of the reason why I may not do Sunday - I may be too tired at that point.)

Julie said...

Thank you so much Marilyn! I am really looking forward to Comfest. I have been working on some things today - including some really funky pieces (using glow in the dark size 8 beads and another bead called a punk bead which is made of rubber!)

I hope that my next 2 days at the other event go well for me - I have another show June 27th and the last one is Sept 7.

I'm sure that you'll be posting more often with the example set by the EBW Team!! Good luck with the last two days of the show.

I already have plans to blog again early next week Marlaine - I finished my first peyote stitch bracelet and plan on getting some pictures of that. I may also be posting pictures of some other pieces as well - if I can get them done - or at least a bit further along than they are right now.
