As many of you know I recently had my first home showing of my jewelry designs and I'm SSOO excited to report....
it was a success!
it was a success!
I worked really hard on all aspects of the show and sale and it seems that most of it worked out really well, I will tweak a few things here and there but my second one shouldn't be as labor intensive as the first (I know my husband and boys are happy about that).
It would not have been a success without the
support of my friends and family.
You all have been so encouraging since way before Behind the Moon was even a legitimate business and I can't thank you enough for coming.
And to those that brought guests...
A HUGE THANK YOU
for helping to expose my designs to some new eyes.
That alone is invaluable to me.

So here are some pics from the day. Too bad it was such a gray rainy day.
I hope everyone enjoyed themselves!

| Me and all my lovelies. I had three main displays set up. My mantle works so nicely as a display space but I will be designing a single table scape for future home shows and craft fairs.  First Frond: Carolina Moon: Calming Waters Blushing Bronze (Coming soon to Etsy) : African Bloom : African Turquoise (Coming soon to Etsy) Some pics of my designs. Yep I know.... I need to take the time to figure out how to better crop and edit in photobucket, but bear with me, I'm often in a time crunch! |
