This is Annmarie Garden where I showed all weekend at Artsfest – good show.  Per person sales were down but traffic was up and it all pretty much evened out compared to last year.  Plus I made many good contacts:  new folks who gave me their contact information for my database, specifically interested in taking torso classes.  Shows are never measured just in sales.  I had people wearing my jewelry from former shows sending new people to my booth to buy some of their own.  This is great stuff! (My final set up is just below – a discussion of pre-set up planning here.)

If you are inclined toward getting technical  I’m actually still on my two-day weekend – except I had to run over to Leonardtown Galleria and put up some new work today.

So I’m allowing myself some down town to enjoy a job well done.  I’m celebrating!  something none of us do enough of – go ahead, tell me the last time you actually celebrated an accomplishment (one of the little ones, that took work but that we discount as we aim at the next one) out loud with candles and maybe a noisemaker and party hat.  I have all 3.  And I’m celebrating!

Celebrate You! (and be sure to bring along your crew to multiply the joy!)
