August 19th---1st Sale Day
Forecast: Foggy, Cloudy, & Humid... No Sales today.... :(
The market was busy and lots of people enjoyed looking at everything. I wasn't as prepared as I wanted to be. I got into a car crash on Monday and got really bad whiplash, so all the things that I was planning to do for the market this past week, were put on hold. My very nice father-in-law drove down from Wisconsin and drove me to the market because my car has been totalled.
I really liked the set-up of out booth, and we had lots of comments and lots of looks. People were really impressed with a lot of the items. I wish I had the book copied so that I could have handed it out. I will be copying it this week, now that I have a rental car, and so I will be passing it out at the next market. Also I only got 4 hours of sleep last night, because of the pain of lying down. I am hoping to heal this week some more and have everything ready for next Saturday. I apologize to everyone that everything was not ready.
A lot of people who looked also took people's business cards of the items that they liked, I of course forgot my own. So I hope for all things better next week, I will have the book copied by then, the table cloth made, and the raffle ready to go.
Popular items: Cheryl Avenue's magnetic bracelets, Glorious Hat's pink velvet hat, Lil Fish's Egg Candles, Faff Creations Large Fish Vase, OhMa!'s embroidered towels, Art2Art Colorado's ACEOs, Glitter and Gleam's Natural Stone Eyeglass Necklace, Small City Style's Eye Pillow, Shel's Design's Polymer Clay Earrings...
Photos to follow soon...

Hi there, Many thanks to your father-in-law. And to you for still managing the stall in light of accident aftermath.
Appreciate you letting us know the popular items.
Hoping for improved health, weather and sales next Sat.
Take care,
Jane
Jane,
Thank you, Me too for Saturday. Yesterday was my first day back at work and I wasn't in pain, so that was a good sign... This Saturday will be easier... :) -Eve-
ps. every person that walked by absolutely loved that little velvet hat... :)
Oh Eve, am so pleased to learn you are feeling better. And am so impressed that you went to Market on Sat. You are a real trooper.
Again thanks so much for doing this. There are no Etsy street teams within 200+ miles of me, so this seemed a great way for me to participate in an Etsy awareness project.
Kind regards,
Jane
I want to try and get lots of Etsy Awareness out before the start of the holiday season... I got the book printed last night and I can't wait to hand that out! :) -Eve-
