Gettin' ready!

 

Christmas in the Village is next Saturday, December 11! I spent quite a bit of time getting everything sorted and packed today.

Each item on the table will sell for $5. There will be clay ornaments and Christmas decorations made by students and staff members, mug rugs and baby doll blankets made by Mom, and tatted ornaments, necklaces, and bookmarks made by me.

Our goal is to raise $500. Wish us luck!

First snow


We had our first snow this morning! I know it's not much, but I love snow no matter how little there is. It was the perfect way to start Christmas in the Village!


It was not a terrific sales day.


However, I did meet some very nice people, and I had the opportunity to discuss tatting!


I even gave my contact information to another vendor who is interested in learning to tat!


No, I did not sell much, but I had a wonderful day, and...


I have five Ice Drop laden trees decorating my home! The branches aren't full, so I think I'll tat some more!

Christmas in the Village

Today was Christmas in the Village, and I had a table full of goodies to sell!


I had scarves made by Mom and me... woven, crocheted, knitted. I sold two. No one was interested in my pin cushions. That's okay. I'm sure find a good home for them. I had three size of bags that Mom made; she wove her own fabric and then sewed the bags. I sold three of them. Mom also sent up some mug rugs; I sold one.

My little silver tree was loaded with Ice Drops and Lucky Pennies. I sold six. I know it doesn't seem like I sold much, but the shoppers were few, so I consider myself pretty fortunate.


Denise stopped by with another bag of glass gems for me. I think I may have to come up with some other patterns to use up all these gems!


I think they look much prettier in a bowl. I would have liked a clear glass bowl, but apparently they're all filled. :-)


I finished the pink Ice Drop while sitting at my table today. I tatted the yellow one at home tonight.


I even managed to work on my Baby Pink Spinning Wheel glass mat today. All in all, I think it was a wonderful day!
