Crafty Biz

Last Saturday night I did something people have been telling me to do for years - I put my handmade crafty stuff up for sale. Not just online, but face to face. With actual customers. Who may or may not like what I produced out of the depths of my heart. I had the chance to participate in ModShop, a local craft fair. Umm. Woo.

I was most afraid that people would walk right by, completely uninterested in my thoughtfully made wares and display.

I was second most afraid that people would pick up my thoughtfully and carefully made items and say, "She wants that for $THAT?? 

I was third most afraid that people would pick up my thoughtfully, carefully, and skillfully made items and say, "Oh! I see how she did that, I could totally make that at home for cheaper."

But you know what? People loved my stuff. It was awesome. It was gratifying and cathartic. They ooed and aaawed and bought. Six years of wondering, one night of answer after answer after answer. Sooo good.

And I made bank considering the investment capital, which is super awesome.

Sometimes one must celebrate the good times. That is all.

Oh! And I totally got to be on the news! 5.5 seconds of fame ya'll.
