Exhausted after a great holiday show today. I was up and out the door at 6:30 a.m. The temperature on my car thermometer read 16 which made for a very chilly load in.
I never know exactly where my spot will be or how large of a space I will end up with. I have to do some quick thinking to get everything put together in a two hour window before the crowds come in the door.
Pictures are doing the talking for his post.
It might seem a bit redundant to do a post on each of my holiday shows. I view my blog as a diary of sorts and it helps me to go back from year to year and show to show to look at layout and props. I also enjoy looking at what I have made in the past and what has sold.
A very good day. I am dead tired and going to go sit and watch television and craft some more candy canes for my next show. The biggest show of them all next weekend and a busy week for me.
You could post about those shows over and over and most people that read your blog would NOT get tired of it. Your shows are like a fairytale winter glitter wonderland and I for one LOVE the eye candy. Just wish I lived closer!

I agree with Marci. You could post about your shows and beautiful creations daily and I would never ever grow tired of your pictures. It's Christmas magic over and over again. Good luck this week getting everything ready for your next show. I'm sure you'll do fabulous.

I NEVER get tired of seeing these posts! I blog about my booth space mostly to help me remember what has sold, how I've displayed things, etc. I also blog about what I buy to help remember how long I've had something! :)

I'll go along with the crowd-- these posts are fun to see for those of us who cannot attend!

So I guess my hoping that some of those beautiful things don't sell so they will end up in your etsy shop would be wrong? Tehe! May customers flock to your table with bills a waiving!....hugs Patti :)

I NEVER get tired of seeing all that glitter and sparkle so please continue! BTW, I see my blog that way, too, like an on-line journal. Amazing that you could set all that up in just two hours. I think you have the routine nailed!

Wow... only two hours to set up? What a fab job you did... I can't imagine how many hours you've put into all that inventory. Amazing.
Your deer herds just put a huge smile on my face every time I see their photos.... magical!
