Arts & Crafts Show Results

Retro Revival showed at the 38th annual Micanopy Fall Harvest Festival last week.  Our fourth time doing this show, we were well prepared, relaxed, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.


Captain Project is such a good sport, doing most of the heavy lifting, and rockin' an apron like no other man!


And I'm obviously biased, but he's awfully handsome too!


On day two of the show, we moved the steel clothes rack (Captain Project made it for me) that we normally place front to back:


...and rearranged it to run side-to-side, across the tent and near the entrance:


Don't know why we hadn't thought of doing this before now!  It made lots more space for buyers to navigate around the tent and try on aprons.  I design the aprons I take to sell at shows as "one size fits most," but my customers love to try them on when deciding which one to buy ~ and often agree to strike a pose for me:






Can't blame them for wanting to play dress-up ~ I did it all weekend long!

Waaaaay too cute! I hope you sold lots and lots of aprons. You and your hubby are definitely rockin' the chic apron look, and yes, your husband is very handsome. You are just so pretty, and I'm lovin' your new glasses.

Hugs,
Meri

Holy crap Cindy!!! You had a boat-load of items to sell! You look too darn adorable in your new cat eye glasses! And your hubby looks mighty dapper in his Fedora.
I'm going to look into this festival and I might make the trip down to FL next year for it!
Happy November! :)

Well I don't make a habit of whistling at other womens hubbies but your Captain Project deserves a whistle! Lol.
Looks like it was a great sale. :)
