me stretch for my first craft show! Irv and I drove out to Woodstock yesterday to scope out my spot. It's really very nice for having been on the waiting list. The town square is so pretty with cobblestone streets, cute shops and the park right in the middle with a big gazebo. My spot is right across the sidewalk from the gazebo.I called one of the organizers to ask a couple of questions and found out that people start entering the "staging area" oh, around 2:00 a.m. I had a feeling it was going to be like that. Can you imagine how nuts it must be when you try to get 350 crafters and their vehicles (probably 2 each) into 4 little town blocks? I don't know what time we are going to go sit, but it won't be 2:00 a.m. for sure.
Irv did an a
wesome job on the hanging dowel rods for my pillows. It's so nice to have a husband that is handy AND supports your efforts. He also made some great hanging foam board displays for my photos and cards.When I asked the coordinator how busy the park area got during the show...the word "congested" came up. I was more looking for the words "crowded with shoppers."...but congested came up when we were talking about the activities that take place in the gazebo all day. Not sure my spot is going to be the best for sales, but it could be a lot of fun!
It's time to stuff more pillows! Have an awesome evening!

Good Luck! Sounds like it will be fun. Your stuff is great so I think that you will do well!!
Not long now!!!!
Irv is going to be at the show with me all day. Tresa is going to try to come out from the city to help for a while and if Michael and Bern get back from a wedding in time, they will be there as well in the afternoon. :) Do you all want to come and help too??
How very exciting! Good luck, good luck, good luck! %%~ That's my keyboard impression of a 4 leaf clover!
