Today's the Day- Or Tonight's Today

It's officially Friday November 9, so the Northern Virginia Christmas Market Show begins. Or it will in another 10 hours. We've just gotten back from setting up the booth. I'm nervous but have received a great bit of news!

I'm the featured blogger on the November newsletter from the Creative Glass Guild of Etsy. Stop and look at the newsletter at http://www.cgge.org/0004Newslette1107.htmThere's a couple of links there to some well written articles on glass cutting .



For those who do not know, Etsy is a crafters selling website where crafters sell their wares, network and generally schmooze. http://www.etsy.com/Great fun! I've met some great people online and through them, some really nice crafters local to the DC region.



Do stop by and see us at the show this weekend, http://www.emgshows.com/a_nvcm.htm. We're near the Cafe at booth 389. We'd really like to meet you.

Down to the Wire

Today's the day to check if we have enough electrical supplies, paper goods and other things for the show. Also have to fix 3 broken pieces- sigh, the results of outdoor shows and wind. And why do the inexpensive, easy to repair pieces never fall?
I'm determined to consider this an good omen. Heck I'm determined to consider everything a good omen!

A Picture is Worth a 1,000 Hearts

Here they are in all their multi-colored glory. Red, vermillion, scarlet, pink, yellow, caramel, green, forest, teal, azure, cobalt, navy, violet, and purple hearts. I'm still working on chocolate, brown and irridized hearts for the show.
