Market and Swap-and- Shop


Some days I feel like my life is spinning out of control. I want to come here and document all that is going on, but then I don't know where all of the time goes! The highlights of the last week have been:

Opening day of Kent Farmers' Market: This is my second full year selling jewelry, and it is such a different scene than last year. The Kent Lions, who are in charge of the Market, have done a fantastic job of organizing the Market this year and an even better job of communicating with the vendors about everything that is going on. It was a cold, yucky day, but some of our good friends from last year were there, and some amazing new vendors came. I had a good day, selling several pairs of earrings, and I am looking forward to next week.

The first EtsyRain Swap-and-Shop: This happened on the Sunday following Market, and was an absolute blast. I really appreciate the support I get from my EtsyRain buddies and I just absolutely enjoy spending time hanging out with all of them. Not to mention the fact that I scored some beautiful bookmarks for my dad and father-in-law from NORIK, some destash beads, and a great recycled t-shirt dress from Kayce at WorldofWhimm (from her OnaWhimm shop). Even better, I got to pay for the dress in fabric.

I'm going to try to post more regularly, hopefully my life will calm down. Until then, I'll keep reading everyone else's blogs and enjoying hearing about your lives.
