My full-time job is my children. My part-time job is photography. And my part-time, part-time job is an Etsy shop full of all the fun things I like to make.
I paused my Etsy shop after I had Lil Jon, and had recently been thinking about reopening it because it's just something fun that I like to do and I can make a little money on the side.
And then my sister Madeline, Citrus Arts Designs , asked me if I could help her start doing craft shows, and showing her the ways of vendorship, in addition to her Etsy shop.
So we decided to go big or go home and applied for the largest, one day indoor craft show on the East Coast. And what do you know, we got accepted. 🤯 So now I'm working like a crazy person to make a larger inventory to accommodate a 10x10 booth!
It's the 2021 Craft and Holiday Show on Nov 6th here in Dover, Delaware at the Del Tech Campus. If you're in the area you should definitely stop by. Do some tax free shopping and support local businesses!
It's been put on every year since 1983 by the Dover Spouse's Club. They are a non-profit organization composed of military spouses who volunteer to make the event possible. All the profits help fund their local and national donations as well as an annual scholarship program for graduating seniors and military spouses.
Here are some of the things I've been working on. The upcycled bottle cap snowmen are always a hit! Still have to give them little scarves. 😍
What do you look for at craft/handmade shows?
