Craft Show Tomorrow!



Tomorrow is our craft show and I only have a few more hours to get ready for it.  I love craft shows--as long as they are inside!  I have had my share of outside craft show disasters.  Just last month, we had a show outside and it was in the 90's!  Give me air conditioning and a constant air flow, and I'm happy.  


We are donating a portion of our sales tomorrow to the Alzheimer's Association.  I am looking forward to a good show.  Several of our residents are very talented and have made items to put in the craft show.  One of our residents makes wonderful dolls from head to toe.  And even the faces and hair are hand-stitched.  I will let you know how things go after it is over.  Here is an example of some of our items we will have in the show.

Craft Show This Week


I am managing a craft show, the annual Elmcroft Memory Walk Craft Show, this week. It will be held on Thursday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. It is being held at the Elmcroft, the assisted living facility where I work. We are raising money for the Alzheimer's Organization and, hopefully, we will have some good sales! It's been a lot of work. I will try to get some pictures of it on here next week. I have made most of the crafts, but have some friends who are also adding their crafts. I have also worked with my more "crafty" and talented residents to make some wreaths and handmade greeting cards. They came out great! I have no idea how many people will show up. We are placing a nice big sign outside by the road which gets some high volume traffic, so maybe some people will stop out of curiosity.

I have added a picture of another twist to my tatting. This time, I added it to a headband covered with pink satin ribbon. My four-year-old grandson was my assistant and did a great job holding the headband for me to photograph! I think I'll use him again in the future--he works cheap and loves helping me with all my crafts.
