going home to roost’s booth!

September 13, 2010

happy monday lovelies! after a long weekend, i’m back from the indie craft parade! the show was wonderful, successful and full of amazing artists.  i was so thrilled to meet some of you in person, as well as meet and greet with some of my favorite artists.  i’m so thankful for my mom who went with me and helped so much, i couldn’t have done it without you!

for indie craft parade’s first year (and my first craft show), everything went perfectly.  they put on the show brilliantly, had a beautiful historic location and advertised the show to the limit.  there was a 30 minute waiting line down the sidewalk all day, both days! a big thank you to everyone who helped and all the artists who made the show unforgettable!

coming up next? all the fun things i got!

the indie craft parade will bring the best handmade artists from the southeast together under one roof. it’s a public market where you’ll find indie crafts, local food, and opportunities to meet and greet with your favorite artists!  held in greenville, sc with free admission, we hope to see you there!

i’ll be there with a booth full of going home to roost goodies!  as you can see, i’ve been a busy lady:
