First show went well

My first show, although very small, went pretty well.  I met some very nice people and I sold a few of my items.  I am glad I did it....even on such short notice.  I hope to be in a high school show this Saturday May 4th in Glen Allen, Virginia.  I will keep you updated :)  
 

A change in plans for this weekend.....

I found a larger show that had a few spaces left for this weekend so I am changing my location for this weekend.  I will now be at the Fredericksburg Fairgrounds on Saturday, April 27th from 9 to 4.

This is an event to benefit the Fair Museum
