My first craft show! TBEC Rock and Roll Holiday Market

I've been a part of my local city Etsy group, and I've been watching all of the craft shows people have been posting about. I have been waiting for a year to try a show, and I'm glad I had the chance to be a part of the Tampa Bay Etsy Crew's holiday market. 


My boyfriend also joined, sharing his t-shirt designs from Lines and Dashes. It was his first show too, and he was excited to sell his hand printed shirts. I was so happy we got to share a tent together. I don't think I had enough items to fill a full table, but I brought enough to fill half!




I brought a variety of items I had on hand, mostly hats that I made as a tester, a few headbands that I made while we sat at our booth, cowls, koozies, and some small purses I made especially for the market. I was also testing to see what would be the best items to make more of.



People passed by and looked at the items. Everyone admired the Minnie ears hat and the stormtrooper sack hat, a perfect eye catcher with the Star Wars movie coming out soon. I did get a couple of sales for headbands and storm trooper koozies. Overall, it was a great event with a great group of people that were very helpful. 

If you have an Etsy page, make sure to look for your local Etsy group and join in their craft shows. They have been a great help in learning about selling online and in person.

What have I been doing?

I wrote a post on my first craft show here: TBEC Rock and Roll Holiday Market.

I got that dreaded root canal done last month. a piece of my tooth decided to break off, but they were able to save my tooth. This week I finally get my teeth capped. The process was not as bad as I thought, with the numbness or the after effects. I'm glad I got it done!

One Sheet Folded Advent Pocket Book - Crafty Journal
I'm loving this Advent Pocket Book shared by Crafty Journal. It's a perfect way to personalize for kids or family. The pockets are so cute, and I love the binder rings. I want to make my own notebooks with those. Thanks for sharing, Noreen!

 Congratulations to the featured blogs!


Don't forget to check out the other blogs from last week! 

What have I been doing?

This Saturday I'm doing my first craft show! I'm so excited! I've been working on all the things I want to sell. Most of them are the hats I've tested over the years, plus a few purses. I have pictures too! 
Hats galore!

Some fun cross-body purses (Pattern from Jessie At Home)

I have a feeling this bag will finally sell this year!
