Ready for my Crafts show

[scrollerpete]

Just to reiterate, I decided to have my own crafts show in my garage where I live. We are a community of 185 double bungalows all retired people and I decided to get rid of some of my inventory. It will be held tomorrow between 10 and 2.00. Here is a video of my set up.

Good luck for tomorrow.  You have a terrific display and a great assortment of items.  Can I ask where you got a couple of the patterns from, the candle in the holder in the first photo and the red bells in the second photo, I really like both of them.

Red bells pattern is from Alex Fox on Etsy, the candle in the holder (trivet/plaque) will have to search a little bit more.

I made this marquetry at least 20 years ago, the company has been out of business for at least 10 years. Sorry I cannot help.

Well it is all over, great turn out beautiful day for us at this time of the year, low 70. I sold my sugar bush marquetry for the asking price and made over $1200 on the day. Now I have room to store more crafts for next year and buy more wood.

Great job Pete! Have you thought about doing a holiday boutique with other crafters?

Well my accountant(wife) made a mistake and after a recount we sold for $1368 and have others for additional $60.

Yes but everyone is scare with COVID. We have people that do wood turning, knitting, painting, sewing maybe next year have a day which will be crafts day in our location, people can walk from one place to the other and meet at the same time.

It sounds like a great community, I’m sure it would be a great event!

Just send a broadcast email to all the owners, we are a community and have a club house, board of directors so it is easy to communicate among us.

Most of it, between what I cut in Florida during the winter and at home during the rest of the year. The sugarbush marquetry was done at  least 20 years ago.
