Can you tell I watched a documenary on Freddie Mercury of Queen on Thursday evening? The second sale is over, and I was very pleasantly surprized at how well I did. I sold mainly stuff that I've been making for years, such as wallets, and sewing kits. I was amazed at how many people came up, looked at the stuff and said "Oh, I've got one of those. I bought it years ago". So I made a joke of it, pointing out that my stuff is so well made that you never have to replace it--sort of like that chewing gum commercial you see on tv where the fellow is saying that his customers are still chewing the first stick of gum they ever bought.
The class went well too. Everyone went home with a piece of fabric paper. And they had such very different ideas of how they wanted their work to look! As bit of a hoot when you think about it, because if they actually make something out of it, most fo the surface will be covered. A couple of them said that they were going to trim their work and frame it!?! Of course, now I have 10 bottles of fabric paint that was left over. This will have to be used within the next couple of months, or it will deteriorate. Maybe I need to call on Ravenesque to have a painting day.
I haven't slept well the last couple of nights, and I have the grandbabies coming over for supper tonight, so I'll need to be on mybest game when they while the're here. Too much going on in my head, I guess. My last sale is next Saturday, and while I will send some stock, I don't have an active role to play in the selling part of it. But this week, I have to gather together appropriate stock to send. I don't have much! There are two wall hangings that I have taken to every sale for the last 12 months. If they don't sell next weekend, I think it will be time to retire them.
