This Crazy Idea

About three months ago I got this crazy idea to do the bazaar circuit this fall.  I saw myself with a cute little table full of soap, lotion, jewelry and more.  I signed up for bazaars, paid my money and started making stuff.  I must have been downright crazy.  I'm always caught in the middle on this.  You see, I like to make way more stuff than I can use.  And, I always buy way more supplies than I can use, but when you start making stuff to sell, you realize that all those supplies are somehow insufficient and you need more.

I put my foot down this week and said, "No more supplies!"  I filled every jar I own.  Made every last tube of lip balm and bottle of lotion.  It is actually a whole lot of stuff.  I really hope it sells.

Mostly the shows are in Tri-Cities, but there is one in Spokane this weekend.  I would love to see some friendly faces.  Friday I will be here. 

I guess it's hard to read the fine print.  It is at the Kennewick Senior Center, which is at 500 South Auburn in Kennewick. 

Saturday I will be at Ferris High School in Spokane.  The bazaar is a fund raiser for their all-night graduation party. 

Please spread the word.  I love bazaars.  They are such a fun environment, everyone sharing their talents with all those hand-made things.  I have vowed to take one child to each bazaar.  Mazie is joining me on Friday.  I don't know who will be with me on Saturday, maybe Dylan.  He will be the only one willing to get up at 5 a.m. to get to Spokane and set up on time. 

Hope to see you there!!!

  1. I am sooooo going to see you at Ferris High School on Saturday. This is perfect really because Ella and I have Ladies' Day while Pat and Alex have Cub Scout Trailblazer Day. Patrick feels that he has attended his lifetime requirement of bazaars, while Ella LOVES bazaars because it entails shopping. She even likes grocery shopping. See you soon!
