a BIG thanks!

Just wanted to post a BIG [but late] thanks to everyone that came out to see me during the Somerville Open Studios event last weekend! For my very first craft fair event, I have to say that it was a success!

If you saw something you liked during SOS and didn't pick it up then, it may be out on my new online store: ShortcakeScraps.etsy.com And if you couldn't make it out to Somerville for the event, take a peek at what is available now.

Don't forget your Mom this Sunday!

Oh and lastly ... photos from last weekend!

This was the room that Renee and I were in - Rejuvenate.

1 day down, 1 more to go!

Whew! What a day! I must say that the first day of S.O.S. was quite a success - thank God! Two iced grande lattes sure do help a fatigued [sleepless] person get through six hours rather nicely, I'll say. We had quite a bit of foot traffic (they were keeping tally and ended with 405 people!) and I did pretty good in sales, but man it sure is a lot of work doing one of these events. It was great seeing some friends from my ex-corporate job stop in, too. Gotta go make more mother's and father's day cards because those disappeared.

Excited to see what tomorrow brings!

it's the night before S.O.S.

And it looks like Cupid farted on my workspace.

I'm drinking iced coffee.

It's 10:38 pm, people.

I have to make a gajillion cards for tomorrow's event.

What am I doing on the computer?!

I'm printing out signs.

Lottsa signs. "Look here." "Buy this." "Help pay off my college loan."

Gotta clean the apartment. Boyfriend's mom is coming over tomorrow.

Eeeeek! Dirty apartment.

Need sleep. What's sleep? Probably have had about 20 hours of it all week.

Seriously, dude.

Hoping that all this stress is worth it!!!
