Second Storie's Indie Market last weekend was the best yet. It was so good to see so many old friends, and to meet so many new ones. It felt a lot like a family reunion.
I had some new items on hand this year, napkins with knitted napkin rings made from kitchen string and jute twine.
I re-designed the tea-stained cards I've been doing and added some fabric collaged journals. I'm very excited about them.
I'm most excited about my new screen-printed pillows. The response was really overwhelming and flattering. I sold so many on the first day of the sale I drove home and made a couple more as well as some little sachets. I have plans to print more fabric over the break and stock my etsy shop with them.
I was also incredibly touched when a repeat customer from last year showed up looking for my glass etchings. I wish I had had some to offer her, but my little engraver is on the fritz and I haven't been able to track down a viable replacement. I've purchased some glass etching cream
but have yet to figure it out. All in time for sure, and I'll post as soon as I've got some made.
One of the best parts of these events is the trading! I made out like a bandit I must say, gorgeous new earrings from
small bird, a new calendar from
pistachio press, and some amazing flower pins from
ReFashioned. I'll be putting up a post devoted to these amazing new items I have and all the other little things I picked up over the weekend.
My heartfelt thanks to everyone for their support and for coming out to this amazing event. It was one of the best sales I've ever participated in.
If you're new to my little world I do hope you'll check in often. Thanks for reading and especially for taking home my little creations, it means a lot to me.
Until soon friends.
