Craft Fair Season

  My sisters and I just completed a Fall Craft Fair at the Wells Junior High in Wells. We did have a good
 

time meeting some really nice people who are interested in our crafts. We sold a bit of our crafts but were a little disappointed we did not sell more. 

  Not sure we will do this fair next year. We don't seem to do well in off season fairs. Christmas is the best time for us so far. We will see if we can find another venue that we might do a little better.

  I am still healing from my knee replacement surgery so it was a little difficult getting set up and taking down. Thank goodness my husband and my sisters were there so it went pretty smoothly. Oh  yes , Mark, my sister's husband was a huge help,too.

  Looking forward to our annual Christmas Fair the first weekend in November at the Italian Heritage Center in Porltand. We have fun there and do pretty well in selling our crafts.

My Zentangle Project 

  I am really into working on Zentangle projects. I think it is so cool to try and make different patterns that seem to work together to make a cool graphic. The picture to the left is a journal that I added a Zentangle pattern to give it a cool look. I like it. Did not sell any at our craft fair but will give it a try in November.

Capybaras

  The cookies in the picture to the right I made for my granddaughter, Izzy. She had a birthday party where she wanted capybaras to be the theme.

  I had no idea what a capybara was so I learned something. I found a site that had the cookie cutter I needed. I think they came out pretty good. 

  I decorated them with royal icing but forgot to take a picture of them finished. They were all gone by the end of the party so I guess they were a hit!!

 

  I am so happy that my Framed Brooch Art sold at the craft fair this weekend. I thought he was awfully cute. I really loved making this one. 

  I used brooches and beads that I had on hand to make the seahorse come alive. There are many examples of Framed Brooch art on Pinterest which is where I get my ideas. 

   So happy someone loved this picture as much as I did.

  I loved making this card for our daughter, Kristin's significant other. He does work with dogs in a neighborhood business in Colorado. Not sure of the name of the business though. 

  So I thought a birthday card full of dogs was quite appropriate. A card he might like, too.

  I used some dies I had and found the print of the dog celebrating on line.  I think the top graphic of dogs I found on my Cricket machine as a print and cut. I really like how it came out. Hope Mike liked it too.
