Yesterday I bought a garment rackto hang my scarves at shows, but it was not easy to transport, which I figured out after half an hour putting it together, then try to remember where each pole/screw goes. Bah! So today I exchanged it for one that was the same price, with better construction, that folds flat! And, it was already assembled! I just had to screw the clips on the bottom (to hold the top bar when the rackis folded), then pop the top bar on! Sweeeeeet! Now instead of stringing rope around the walls of my canopy, I can just unfold the garment rackand hang up my scarves. Nice and professional, and MUCH better than rope and clothespins.
My materials arrived, and I've been embossing different scarves, with great results. Every one I've done has gotten oohs and aahhs...and I've started on my Autumn line, and each scarf I've made has people going ga-ga. I have also been comissioned to do 2 custom scarves and some custom-blended soap for an on-going client.
And on that note, one of the things we discussed was finding local places to host shows for us, and offer the host/hostess something as payment...some jewelry, a basket or scarf...something nice. Then when Mike and I went to the party at Jen and Laurent's Friday night, I was chatting with Jen about Bertie's idea, and she offered to let us host a party at their home! She's gonna speak to Laurent about it, and let me know
