My Fourth Craft Show

This venue was truly a lot better! It was at the Cleveland County Fairgrounds here in Norman, and I had a feeling it would do better than the last few at the Del City church. It was bigger, and there were TONS of people there. It didn't slow down till about 2pm or so.

Our booth is accented with aqua and black, which is also the colors that mumsy and I wore that day. So the night before, I stayed up late designing my own pattern for a crocheted headband that matched my outfit perfectly!



I was very happy with it, and it was pretty comfortable. My only complaint was the wind! Our booth was right near the front entrance, and the 2 hours we were setting up they had all of the doors propped open (that faced north mind you) so the wind was blowing in freezing air! Even after they closed the doors, the heaters never really caught up with the cold in the front of the building. In the back it was nice and toasty!


We got all set up with 30 minutes to spare, so we both walked around the whole fair sipping our coffees and checking out all of the other booths.

There were a lot of jewelry booths there, and several other repeats of the same things. But nobody else had coasters, bookmarks, or hats with flowers! My hats just flew off of the table, and halfway thru the show I ran home to get more yarn! The 2 hats I made while sitting behind the table both sold! I believe it was a very good idea to do the last craft show right before Christmas! Our next one isn't until March, so I get a few months to recoup!
