Sorry to have missed you if you couldn't make it to the 2015 Arkansas Craft Guild Show in Little Rock, Arkansas. Of course, if you are in Canada or California, etc.......
Anyway, It was a GREAT weekend and I'm happy to report my sales were excellent!!
So, if you couldn't make it, here are some highlights of the show.
ENJOY :)

First there was set up on Thursday. It's hard work but worth it when you get it all put together.
And then the show begins on Friday with all kinds of folks coming in......
And customers of ALL kinds :)

MEET SOME OF THE ARTISTS!
This is Larry Joe who is a wood worker and I had to get a picture of this delightful man and visit with him cause he reminded me SO MUCH of my Daddy!!
Old friends Jo and Marvin (in the background) Smith. Jo makes pottery that is timeless and beautiful and Marvin is a wood worker who makes the most useful as well as beautiful wooden spoons and kitchen utensils.
These guys, Linda and Troy Odom, were across from me last year and I just delighted in getting to know them! And because I LOVE handmade soap, I was at their booth often!!
My new best art fair buddy!!! Marianne Hanson! She was my neighbor this year and we had the BEST time ever not to mention she makes wonderful, fun and colorful porcelain jewelry. Yeh...I now have a pair of earrings :)
My long time friends Ryan and Suzanne Rathje. Ryan makes the most beautiful high class jewelry with gorgeous stones of all kinds. Couldn't get a real picture of them because they are always busy!!
Love these guys!

Now don't be scared...I know she looks dangerous...but is actually a very nice gal who makes and sells wooden swords, etc. in the theme of Lord of the Rings. Yes, she has on elf ears :)
We had a good visit and she is a very nice person whose name has left me.
SO THERE YOU GO!
Hope next year you can make it out....always the first weekend in December at the Statehouse Convention Center in Little Rock, Ar.
Lord willing...you will see me there :)
Thanks for stopping by,

Seems to me that you had a fun time, Mizz Suzi. And so glad that you had a successful show! Did you sell "Shalom"? It seemed to vanish from your FB page. Have a great week!/Sandy
ReplyDeleteI did have a good time Sandy. We enjoy doing art fairs and really miss them so we are glad we are still able to do this one. Shalom sold before the paint was dry! lol!
