Gearing up!

It has been super crazy and exciting getting ready for second storie indie market, well this whole last year. Organizing and getting all the details just right and working with great friends to accomplish it has its wonderful moments and its rip your hair out of your head how will we ever get this all done moments.

It's fantastical (yes I said fantastical!) to be there just the five of us (Shanna, JoAnn, Karen, Rachael and myself) in a just decorated space that is simply beautiful. To see your vision come to life and be exactly how you hoped makes all the effort and long hours and crazy times so worth it.

What makes it even more fantastical of an experience is being surrounded by such immensely talented artists + crafters for a whole weekend. Forging new friendships, catching up with old friends and umm did I mention the most amazing art + craft that I need a second job in order to support my addiction of purchasing incredibly beautiful, fun and handmade goodness these vendors bring.... So exciting! (that last sentence said in one full breath because i'm so excited!)

It pushes me to work harder to make my art as amazing as theirs. That's a big challenge but there are so many wonderful people who give advice and trade information and just plain help you get better that just talking to them makes the day great.

So, I'm busy today putting the finishing touches on my work. Here's a sneak peak just for you...
