Christmas Tea & Craft Sale

This past Saturday was the Annual Christmas Tea & Craft Sale at Ogden Baptist Church. I exhibited my pendants & earrings, marking my very first craft show! I did not know exactly what to expect, but I think it went pretty well. I've never been able to convince myself to do one before, either because I didn't think I had enough product to be very successful, because of bad timing, or because I was being a wimp and didn't want to sit in one place for six hours. But! It ended up being totally worth my while.

An added bonus was the free tea, coffee, and delicious homemade hors d'oevres.

I found that the earrings did not sell nearly as well as the pendants, which were the focal point anyway, and much more impressive. I really got it together in the weeks preceding the sale, and cranked out lots of new pieces. While I'm still honing my imploding skills, I'm happy with the progress I've made since I got my little Bobcat torch.

Next year I will have to expand my variety somehow... Maybe wine stoppers, or candle holders, or ornaments? What would be awesome?
