ready, set ...go

three canteen vases
(for sale this weekend at the ACGA sale)

The calmness of this image is deceiving. I am using it on purpose to psyche myself out into believing I am calm. I am calm, actually, though a bit overwhelmed with all the little stuff that needs to get done for this weekends sale. Craft sales are like playing "store" for a weekend. Imagine starting up a brick and mortar business from scratch for just two days. That means, build the building, make all the stock for the shelves, make the shelves, set up all the business stuff, make sure you have all the bags and packing, price everything, set it up and then clean up, make yourself look pretty and become a shop keeper and be pleasant to everyone who walks through your door (even the not so nice ones) for two days straight, then tear it all down and pack it all up. Then go home and flop on your bed in exhaustion. It is a little intense but you get a kind of rush from it all. Momentum, it is all about momentum. I have to run now, have a building to build and a shop to set up! I will think about looking pretty tomorrow. Please come on by to the ACGA sale this weekend if you are in the area. I would love to meet you if I haven't already and if we have met then lets catch up!
