Show Over

I just got back from my show at Kane County, and, I'm silly tired. I sold a good amount both days. Thank you Lord. I'm so very grateful to all who came out to see me.  I hung out with old friends, and made new ones.




I sold all of my furniture.  Whoo Hoooooo.




Upholstered, wood, industrial, and garden went.




Yes, I made the bookcase/cabinet look like this.  Everyone seemed to love my heavily distressed finish. I believe the buyer will be using it in her bathroom.




Lots of decorative items sold, like this piece I covered in script, and white washed.




More decorated boxes, and my mini busts sold.







By noon Sunday, all I had were some items scrunched on one table.  I sold more, before we started packing around 3:00.  It was an easy pack.




Now, I'm going to crash for the night.  See ya soon.

    Wow! Congrats, Rosemary! There was no doubt in my mind that your booth would be busy and popular! I sure hope that my booth does that well the end of the month in Allegan! :)

    Sleep tight, sweetie!

    What lovely things. I can see why you'd make some serious sales and send people home very happy with their treasures. You must be worn out! I'm always impressed by how hard you work. When I say you should have your own show, I'm not joking!

    Hi Rosemary, I don't know why your new posts don't show on my reading log? looks like I missed out on a lot of great posts... including your give away :[
    On a better note congratulations on a great show!! You had some awesome items. Love that feeling of coming back home with few items only!
    Good excuse to go shopping for new treasures :)
    Hope you get some rest!

    Congratulations on your show. I'm not in the least surprised that you sold most of your things because they are always so unique and pretty. I find you to be an inspiration and would love to pin some of the pictures but can never find any way to do that. Do you not want your things pinned? Also, how do you decide how to price things. The things I make are quite different from yours, but I never know how to arrive at a good price. If you have the time and don't mind, please answer both questions. I'd LOVE to be able to pin a few of your ideas as inspiration for when (if ever) I get my own house. Thanks, Rosemary.

    Tired is good when the sales are happening. Everything you create is such a joyful piece and it is easy to see how others would want them as treasures. May you rest and recharge your creative muse dear...
