Photo Shoot



Today was the day, Monday our photo shoot. We needed a photo for our poster which we will use to promote the fashion show. Alana, the photographer, found our models. We dressed them and they looked great. I will be showing jewellery and silk skirts along with a cotton silk blend scarf. The scarves will have beaded embellishment. Jill has made some new recycled clothing while Alana has some pretty summer dresses. Meaghan has been sewing up a storm making summer hats for my favourite season.

Christmas????


I received an email yesterday asking me to send in plans for my Christmas booth. What month is this? I have 228 days until the start of the show and I usually don't think about a show booth until about 2 weeks before it starts. Change of plan this year.

After The Show



The show went up well and fairly fast except for the time spent holding an ice pack on my big toe of my right foot. One of the wooden walls was dropped and landed on my toe. The father son dual in the booth next to us helped Derek get the walls up and move the shed. The walls that were taken to the show were for a 15 foot booth and we had a 20 foot booth. So what to do!! We moved things around and added a "fence". It turned out not to bad. The show attendance was a little lower than past years and some people were attributing that to the fabulous weather outside. Who knows? You can analyze it to death but I don't think you can ever figure out why people act the way they do. As always as soon as one show is over I am thinking about the next event and it will be a fashion show. Circle May 6th on your calender and get to Bohemia on Dunlop Street, Barrie at 7:00pm that night. I will be showing silk wrap skirts and flowing rayon tops as well as sterling silver, resin and felted jewellery.
