Clover Market

Not much time to talk today. Down to the home stretch prepping for Clover Market in Bryn Mawr, PA tomorrow, Sunday, April 22. If you can make it, find me in booth #4, just off Morris Ave. Looks like we'll have some proper spring weather too! 

April Show

Although its kind of hard to believe with the 16 inches of snow that fell here this week but my first spring craft show is coming up in just about a month.

I'll be at Clover Market in Bryn Mawr, PA on April 22 from 10am-4pm. My husband and I attended for the first time last year and its a really well run show, very organized with a great variety of vendors - craftsman, artists, vintage and food.

And as I prepare for that show, another is ending. Its hard to believe but this is the last weekend for my gallery show at The Bellefonte Art Museum. If you're in central PA you can still see my work until Sunday afternoon.

Saved up

I have a few new pieces posting to the shop this week.

I'm considering creating and selling a tutorial for the Three Piece Convertible earrings (two piece pair below). Belle Armoire asked to publish one and I've also had a couple customers ask about one. What do you think?

I've written tutorials (one for the book, one for Belle Armoire) but with those I had some guidelines from the writer/editor.  It would have to wait until after the anthropologie order of course but I'd like to take more time to mull it over in my head.

I'd love to hear your thoughts - what do you expect from a tutorial that you purchase? What have you liked and not liked about tutorials you've purchased?

We usually take at least one field trip towards the end of the school year, in truth, to save my sanity as we push through these last few weeks. Of course the kids gets something out of it too so its a "win-win".

This is the first time we've ever used the hand held "personal tour  guide" things. 

I'm glad our Baltimore Museum of Art trip had to be re-scheduled because of snow because the day we ended up there was gloriously spring-y and we ate our packed lunches in the sculpture garden amid a sea of daffodils. Ah yes, this was just the kind of day I needed!

I have always loved the mosaics of Antioch and the slanting spring light makes for the perfect experience in this gallery.

 

About

I'm finally working on an About page for my Etsy shop. I was hoping for some better natural light today to take photos on my actual work table but despite what the calendar says is so cold and overcast here in PA. Spring, where are you?
