Artist Market Update

Just a few pics I wanted to share from yesterday's Artist's Market at the Music Farm. This is obviously my booth above.

A few hand painted onesies...

And my neighbor-across the bar- was Stacy of PerlaAnne.  I have mentioned her before in this post.  Check out her work here.

And what a lousy shot of such fun and eccentric stuffed creatures!!!  This is Finkelstein's Center and I just loved their whole collection!  Check them out here.

There were so many talented locals represented here, so if you missed your chance yesterday, you must come out for the next event!  I'll keep you posted!

Seminar: How To Break the Traffic Barrier Of Your Blog

Are you a new blogger with a new blogsite? (I hear echoing 'yes' in the Internet stratosphere). So you decided to jump into the 'social media' bandwagon and created your fresh blog because you think it's cool and simple to be a blogger, right? Wrong.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but just like many other things in life, you have to work for it.

Unless you're a celebrity who has an instant

Mason Market

Sorry for the lack of posts recently!  (For those of you who actually read this-if anybody???)  My goal is to post about something at least each week, but sometimes the days fly by, and still no posts?  Anyway, here are a few pictures from the Mason Market at Mason Prep last week.  Not the best backdrop-what can you do with blank gym walls????

They had a fundraiser with over 40 vendors selling everything under the sun in hopes of raising money for the school.  It was a great event with a huge turnout!  Blue Chickadee participated with El&Ann Designs (formerly Textile. by Margeaux Fraunfelter).  Can you see her ADORABLE dresses hanging from the rack?!!!  I am telling you what, if you are a mother of a little girl or have any reason to buy for a little girl between the ages of 1yr-3yr defintely get one of these cute dresses (only $18 with matching ruffled bloomer for $22) So CUTE!!!! 

Here is a close up of what I am talking about.....cute, huh??

And totally unrelated,  I couldn't resist putting in a photo of baby G-he's a penguin if you can't tell.

And Little R-dressed as a forklift driver (not to be confused with a farmer!)  He had a great green John Deere hat but he refused to wear it at this Halloween party:(  Looks like he's pouting here, maybe he wishes he had it on????

Ok, I do have other things I am working on, so I will post more pics soon!!!!
