I took part in my first craft market not long ago, once the nerves settled down and the customers started coming in I really enjoyed the day. My fellow stallholders were so wonderful, but it also helped to know there was another first timer as well as myself. I met some lovely people and also learned quite early in the day that there are people that will let you know what they think whether it is good or bad feedback. Unfortunately I had someone that did not like or "get" my creations and they were happy to jabber on about it right in front of me. I found this very hard to deal with at the time and it really shook me and my confidence as an artist. After seeking advice I am happy to say that I have moved on and have another craft market next weekend and will be much better prepared to deal with this situation if it should happen again.
Anyway I have so many projects on the go at the moment, that figuring out where to start is challenging!!! and fun, at least I won't get bored...I have a commission order that is coming along nicely and a ridiculous amount of journals in different stages of completion.
Really excited about this project, hot pink and black theme and this is the cover I came up with. This was my third attempt at the cover, and I am happy with this one, can't wait to fill it up.....
Trying to come up with some clever recycled storage options for the studio, shoe boxes are great for this and cheap and easy......
Until next time, I'm off to finish off some projects on my never ending to do list...have a lovely creative day.
