Art market

As you might have noticed, I'm running very late on updating the blog; as it stands now, I'm a month behind actual time.  Well, an art market is to blame. 

Our (awesome) church puts on an art market at the beginning of December each year, and I participated this year.  It was so much work and so much fun.  I started prepping this summer, crocheting and making flower headbands, but the real work came in November when I brought home a van-load of wood from Dad's burn piles.  I painted in pretty much every free moment I had, sometimes just a letter at a time. 

I think they turned out terrific and want to remember what all I painted.  There are a lot of pictures, and they are mostly for me to remember, so if you're not terribly interested in seeing signs, now's a good time to go! :)

Loading up the van the day before the art market.  I had such a coffee-and-excitement buzz!

The initial booth set-up.  I was so worried I wouldn't have enough signs to fill up an entire booth.  Then I got there and couldn't find room for everything.  We had to bring in a second table, and even that was crammed!  I sold a few signs before the market and was paranoid about deleting my "stock" and it looking empty.  That was SO not the case!  I ended up being thankful for the early sales!
