Showtime!

YES that's a feather in my hair:)

As I hit the new post button I just happened to notice this is my 500th post.  It seems fitting that this milestone would co-align with this big moment in my life.  I started this blog scared to hit that publish button for the first time, and here I am ready to embark on another "out there" adventure.  Can't believe I actually went through with this.  I am doing a show.  As you read this I am probably sitting there behind a table full of blood, sweat and tears.  Ready to show the world my stuff. 

Here's what I've been working on:)  My table is soooo different than all the other vendors.  In a sea of beige, cream and white, here I am all whimsical, colorful, childlike...ME!  Have to admit it's a little intimidating.  The IN look is rust and industrial and I am about as opposite from that as you can get.

Kristine has spent so many hours helping me.  She made my little Farmgirl Paints banner, helped me craft on different days, pulled together & merchandised my area...spent countless hours listening to me stress.  I could NOT have done this huge project without her!

This Flea Market Under Glass event really is a huge honor to be a part of.  I can tell ya I'm in some amazing company.  Each booth is just a treasure chest.

I love just walking around and getting ideas.  People are so amazingly talented. 

Okay so it's time to get going.  Wish me luck...send me prayers.  I'll let you know how it goes:)  Oh and if you live close you better come see me!!!

Have a blessed day.

Vendor...who ME!!!

I've been in "edgy Becky" mode as my friend Lissa calls me.  I don't handle stress or deadlines well.  Oh how I wish I could change that about myself.  I would love to be one of those people who never get ruffled, who stays calm and serene even in the midst of trials and craziness.  It's all good.  God knew that when he made me.  I'm definitely a work in progress.  I just shared about my cocooning dreams.  Oh how I can't wait for that...but it's going to have to wait.  I just had an awesome opportunity come my way and I can't say no:)

 

I'm going to sell at a show.  A REAL SHOW.  I will be a vendor...ME!  Little ol' me at an amazing local show.  It's in less than a month and I have a whole LOT to do.  I'm terrified.  It's always been one of those things I've been really afraid to do.  Talk about putting yourself out there.  Geesh!  I'm much more comfortable hiding behind my computer screen and Etsy store.  But alas the day has come and I'm goin' for it. 

I know a few things about myself...I can be a self sabotager.  I do it with my weight and lots of things.  I strive and work hard and then when the time comes to see results sometimes I fizzle.  I choke.  I become overwhelmed and paralyzed.  So pray for me.  Pray that I can pull this off and get all my stuff made...oh and the big kicker is I leave for Seattle to visit Lissa and Sasha in the midst of my push.  So yeehaw.  I better get off here and get to crackin'.  Hopefully not literally...HA!  Oh and girl's watch out...when you're not looking your dreams WILL come true!  God has a way of sneaking them up on you:)

Have a blessed day.
