Last Craft Show for 2005

We are closing our craft show year on a big bang with a very successful 7 hours Saturday at the Christian Brothers Academy near Albany Airport. How successful you ask? Let's just say, if Pat and I were playing Craft Show Strip Poker, we'd have been thrown out for public nudity right after lunch. I even had a strong hit (but no sale) on the alligator sculpture shown above. We sold 17 items (matted and framed antique postcards and Currier and Ives prints from old insurance calendars) as well as ~$100 worth of our soap for a total of $886 plus tax. This isn't just about the cash, although it is nice not to have to make an ATM trip on a good show weekend. This is about a hobby that appears to be paying for itself after 3 years of effort. This is about working together on something we both enjoy. This is about the other craft vendors we meet and about the customers we build these images for. We are looking forward to next year!
