The good folks from Got Craft posted an awesome time lapse video of the craziness last spring, right from the first moments that Rob & Andrea set up the tables, to the first vendors arriving and all the way through the show to the final clean up. I was happy to see that I wasn't… Continue reading Time Lapse Craftiness

No matter how many hours I devote to prepping for a market, I've still… Continue reading September Markets

This summer has been filled with plenty of work, but it's been either the locket-making, market sort or packaging orders/off to the post office kind. This is precisely why I enjoy signing up for… Continue reading The Pocket Show
