What a great 1 day festival. LOL


Well mother nature decided to let us do a one day show as opposed to two. The weather was AWFUL Sunday so we didn't chance our crafts. But what a great one day show. Mom sold two ottomans and lots of the beach decor, and I had a great hit with the first time selling the decals. I am looking forward to these summer shows provided mother nature plays nice. LOL

But we had a great time and had our lovely blah blah dad/husband there to do the heavy lifting!
Up next we have the Kernersville Spring Festival. Looking forward to this.

What a break!




Ok so we are gonna start this new craft fair season off with a bang. We have a 2 day show this weekend at Holden Beach, NC. Both of us are excited. This will be my first beach show. I am hoping for great weather. I have started to dabble in the world of vinyl art decals and I am in LOVE! I like the end results, sometimes I will start a project and be sortof on the fence on the end result and by the time its finished I am happy. It is a really cute way to add art and creativitiy to your space and not damage the surface it is on. Here are a couple examples of the vinyl and a couple of moms new ottomans. She has picked a couple new fabric choices to hit it off with a bang.
In May we will be at Kerners Folley in Kernersville, NC for a great festival.

In June we will be at the Piedmont Triad Farmers Market for the Craft Fair 3 days of fun and excitement and hey this time it shouldn't snow on us!

A couple updates...

Well I have been invited to participate in 2 craft fairs on Tuesday of next week, one in Kernersville at Keller Williams Realty from 12:30-2:30 and then another that afternoon at Providence Place in High Point from 4-6. I will also be at the Western Avenue Baptist Church in Statesville this Saturday from 10-3 pm. Also next Saturday 12/19 I will be at the Graham Civic Center (off McGhee past the middle school) from 10-3. So plenty of opportunities to pop by and say hello and grab a couple last minute gifts for all those sweet people in our lives you want to give a little something to. Here are a couple things I have been working on this week.

Check out those cute dog treats. My dog loves them!

What a cold weekend!


This was my side of the tent, much more cluttered than moms, LOL. We had to protect as much as possible from the wind/rain/cold, so we didn't get a lot of items out the first day.




Dad helped both days. I think he likes this craft fair hobby!

Second day was much better. My daughter didn't stay covered up in the corner like the day before. We were able to display so much more and the people came out to shop!

I loved this setup from the first day. Moms stuff just seems to all go together very nicely, kind of like room decor in a box idea.

Santa came out today and just had to have his picture taken with the blah blah girls. Mom made the hats to match our theme, we were the hit of the show.

On day 2, we were able to display the ottomans and lots of people admired them. A couple good leads. Come on you guys, you know you want one or two!

This was moms setup inside day 2. We needed to get that beach decor out and show off her talents.

The Doggy Seat Saver and dog treats were a huge hit yet again! Whats not to love. Our dogs want to travel with us and we need and want them to be safe doing so. They are our children too!


Well the craft fair was cold yet a lot of fun. 2 days spent with family and made new friends to boot. I enjoyed it and look forward to many more future shows. Thanks to all who came out in the weather. See you soon, blah blah blah.

First Official Craft Show Jacksonville NC


Well we had our first craft show this past weekend. It went pretty good. Mom didn't sell any storage ottomans this time but did sell her first Doggy Seat Saver to the bulldog breeders. We are hoping that's a big lead for her. I sold lots of little things and the 40 Sucks bouquet. My daughter was happy about that. We worked together on the booth set up and discovered things we would do a little different next time. We did enjoy being together like always.
The doggy seat savers are great for keeping your dog hair off the seats and to keep the dogs in the seat instead of on the floor. We have lots of styles and colors to choose from, can customize with your car colors. 38.00 each.
The ottomans are all handmade and come with a matching pillow. You can easily store a blanket or two and the tv remotes/books inside. Also makes a great seat when you have a lot of people over. We can customize to match your decor. 89.00 each
The starfish candle holders are $25 for the set or $12.50 each.

Let us know what you think!
