Isn't that how the old saying about 'Pink sky in Morning' goes??
Well, it seems we have been having a LOT of BEAUTIFUL PINK SUNRISES lately... or so they appear on the surface!
I think that there should be a similar WARNING about blogs.
Blogs created by people with LOTS of talent.
Blogs created by people with LOTS of talent.
Blogs created by people who are terribly organized.
Blogs created by people with wonderful photography skills.
SHOULD NOT BE READ BY THE HIGHLY IMPRESSIONABLE!!
As an avid thrifter, I have been known to start 'picking-up' things at sales because 'they are The HOT ITEM' in blog land...

| Everyone KNOWS you can't leave a CHEAP Shiny Brite behind... |
 |
| TRAIN CASE?!? a 'MUST' that I now can't live without, and before BlogLand I didn't even know they existed!! ~ N O W ~ I have really crossed over to the DARK SIDE....
Recently I was approached, and asked to be a vendor in a SMALL, Local Fall handmade Farm Market....
and I agreed.
I have never done this before.
I blame YOU Blogland!
(Yes, 'You' KNOW who you are!!)
I am definitely dipping my toes into unknown territory...
The theme to my booth is Upcycling in the FingerLakes of NY.
VERY small show with low foot traffic - good for a newbie!!
(ie: won't need a LOT of product)

...and of course THE. PEDESTALS
~ LOTS of them, all ready to GO!!!
The BIG PROBLEM?
is that I pass by this view from my Attic/Studio window...
I LOVE AUTUMN and I don't want to miss it!!
So, I'm still taking time out for Daytrippin' with Pals to take in the sunshine and sites...

| I had NEVER held an ANNALEE doll in my hands before (or seen one in person), but while scrounging through a box of ornies at Rummage sale recently, I heard the lady next to me say to her Partner in crime "OH. MY. GOSH! LOOK. AT. THIS. UGLY! SANTA!" Just by the tone in her voice, I KNEW it had to be. I turned my head SO FAST to get a glimpse of what she was referring, then held my breath that neither would take it. They didn't. I grabbed it. I checked the tags. IT WAS! ((It will be going to an E-store soon)) HOPE EVERYONE IS ENJOYING THEIR COUNTDOWN TO ALL-HALLOWED EVE!! (I will be back with a report after 10/19!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Consider yourselves WARNED! ((this could happen to you if you read Blogs!!)) |

Yay for making time to experience Fall in the FL:)
Uh Oh. I think I have just been called OUT.
*cough*
YEAH for you for doing a show! It is fun and you will enjoy it. All the hard work is time consuming, but then BAM it is over. What you don't sell is immediate store inventory for Etsy or a shop. Can't wit to hear how it goes! I'm no pro - but LMK if you have any questions.
Last thing, Annalee's are not ugly. Why do people think that???? :( I think they are great. But, you know that right?
BLOGLAND out.
Woo-hoo! I hope you have a fun first-time vendor experience. I'll warn you--it gets in your blood or something and then you want to do it again, despite the nutty amount of work and stress it is to get ready. I'm excited for you!
GOOD LUCK!!! Have fun!! Take pics of the shoppers.... we're such a weird bunch.
