Thank you, thank you thank you to all the great vendors and shoppers that came out Saturday for the show!

The goodie bags were gone in about five minutes and I heard many great comments from customers about the fun goodies in them.

The show went off pretty smoothly. Jerome and I got there at 7:30 to start laying out booths and realized we were a little tight on space. It ended up working out fine with some extra help from his mom and dad and we were ready when the first vendors started to arrive.

The morning was nice and steady and although things definately slowed down in the afternoon, I do feel good about the show. There are many things affecting sales I have noticed, including rising prices in some many aspects of our lives. When you have to pay $4.00 a gallon in gas just to get somewhere ($4.50 one of my Chicago vendors told me!), you are definately thinking more before spending.

I took a few pics although they are a bit dark.

Here is just a sampling of the great booths.

Yesterday we were going to try to go to the big flea market in Elkhorn, but Jerome is working on levelling the pool and I was pretty wiped out after Saturday. I actually ended up sleeping most of yesterday, which I think was what I needed! I did have a bit of an over-tired pregnant lady meltdown yesterday morning and Jerome came home from the store with a big bouquet of flowers and card for me. He truly is the best husband. He is an amazing step-dad too and can’t wait to see him be Little Man’s Daddy. We need to majorly kick into high gear baby wise now. Time to turn the craft room into the nursery!

I will be adding tons of new stuff to the shop this week, so check back too. I added a few movie and Wild Things coasters this morning.

Congrats to Misha too, on winning the hair clips! I put them in with your package today, lady. enjoy!!

This weeks contest is going to be pretty awesome. I have some super cool goodies to share with my blog readers in the next few weeks…….
