Finally! I am making some time to blog today. It has been an hectic few weeks since the Inman Park festival. And i have to say....drumroll please......It was truly an amazing show. I dont think there was a time during that whole 2 days that we had less than 3 people shopping at the Booth. I do have to say it started off bad. I broke a panel of earrings that had 35 pairs hanging from it. I was almost in tears. I spent countless nights away from family movies and dinners to sweat over all the jewelry for this festival. Then my credit card machine stopped working. My spirit was slowly but surely shutting down.
I called Devaughn (hubby)and broke down.....but all his sweet words of encouragement made me wipe my tears.....put on my big girl panties ....get myself together, put a big smile on my face ......and VOILA! ching ching!!!!! One sale after the others. One thing i have learned from being in business for myself for so many years is that you get what you put in. If you wear your stress on your face everyone will feel it and keep away. Fake it if you have to but don't bring your personal woes to work.
I loved doing the Inman Park festival. It is so community oriented. People value and support local artist. My jewelry did well, the sari wraps sold out.....And i made so many new friends and customers. I was so very excited! We will be definately be there next year bigger and better. Thank you for the awesome opportunity.
Believe it or not i did not even have time to take pics!!! But here are some pics of the jewelry!
