Fundraising Event

Last week I was a vendor for an annual fundraising event. This "Say Buy Buy to Cancer" event raises money for the American Cancer Society.  I thought I'd share a few pictures from the event.  It was such a fun evening. 

A few pictures of my displays:

And the shoppers begin shopping!

It was such a fun night!  I'll be posting some future tips and advice on shows in the next week.

Craft Show Display

I love looking at other crafter's displays!  So I thought I'd share mine from a show I did this past Saturday.  I only had a 6 foot table, so it seemed a bit cramped, but overall I received a lot of positive feedback.  It sure is a lot of work though.  I spent most of the day sitting, and the metal chair wasn't the most comfortable.  I was tired by the end of the day.  The show was in my hometown and several friends and relatives stopped by which was nice :)

Open House

I had my first jewelry open house Thursday evening.  My sister-n-law graciously hosted the event.  What a fun evening of friends, drinks, food and of course, jewelry!  I wasn't sure what to expect and certainly learned alot.  I received a lot of positive feedback on my displays, especially the holiday-themed table.

My sister-n-law and mom helped make a scrumptious array of finger food and snacks.  I will be posting recipes and ideas this week.  We had lots of food that is perfect for entertaining and holiday parties.  Below is a quick sneak peek at some of the goodies!

We recruited my dad to help prepare some of the food.  Even Lexi, my nephew's boxer hung around the kitchen - of course she was waiting for crumbs to fall!

Have a good week!   xo Kathy
