I wanted to let all of you know that I will be attending an open house tomorrow and Friday at the house of a super talented interior designer (she is known for decorating her home for the holidays and inviting houndreds of her clients to come by). I was found via Etsy and invited to this and am so thrilled to be participating. I am sure I will post pictures later in the week...It's in Western Springs, everyone around Chicago area should be familiar. Let me know if you can make it and I will pass along more details.
Secondly, I was accepted to participate on the yearly Holiday 2008 DEPART-ment event happening downtown Chicago! Go to the website and read more about this amazing opportunity happening a couple of times a year...a great way to meet new designers, sell and well...shop handmade goodies. I just found out I will be given a wee little space (2'x2' to be exact) to display my products...Here is where I need your opinions dear friends! Which products should I include?

HURRAY! You are going to have so much fun, at both events! I would definitely bring your calendars, prints in all different colors and your tags! You have so many yummy goodies, darling, it would be hard to choose a small collection!
Off to go read your interview with Sarah!
Very, very cool! I agree though, it's hard to narrow down what I like. I do enjoy the calendars :)
Yeah for you!
i think the calendars for sure, since i shows your range of designs, well, i agree with Julia!
it is hard for such a small space. glad you don't make huge odd shaped items like hula hoops or anything like that!
i wish i could go tomorrow or friday :( i am getting ready to go to san francisco this weekend into next week for work.
the second show, I can try and come on the first day (Friday). I will put on my calendar, I leave that saturday for los angeles for a week.
when I get back we should plan on a meeting with you, me and Julia!!! that would be fun.
you can email me here cyng1@mac.com
let me know how your showing is this weekend!

i wish i could go to the open house.
:(
i'd love to see your work.
you need to bring everything:)
Again... I offer you congratulations my dear!!!
Have fun this weekend at the open house. I can't attend but I'll be thinking of you. I hope you have a good turn-out and I hope the weather cooperates.
2'x2 'is really tight! Yes, what a wee little space! I would bring STATIONERY!!! You could fill a cute *little* basket with a collection of your beautiful designs. Speaking from experience, I think stationery is the sort of thing that people might pick-up at these sort of art fairs. Bring some prints, too! And 2009 calendars! I would bring some holiday but not too much holiday. Maybe you could throw in a couple holiday tags with the purchase of a calendar... just to give your wee space a sales edge! :)
I wish I could make it out, vana:( House and work projects are keeping me at bay. I wish you all the best though!!! Sell, sell, sell:)
I vote for the 2009 calendars. They are so cute!
congrats!!!
bring your wall hangings and all of your stationary--you can have the stationary in boxes for people to go through and hang the wall stuff behind maybe from a little clothesline or something homey? or something like that...
Congrats, Vana! Definately bring the calendars, stationary, maybe some gift tags :)
Thanks for the link, I'll definately put it on my calendar as I'm certain I'll need some gifts.
And, happy birthday! I hope you have a splendid day :)
congratulaitons! i agree with deb. you can even create different levels to maximize the space.
Congratulations!! That is really awesome and you should be very proud of yourself:)
PS: Are BIRTHDAY wishes in order?! Happy happy!!
Lil Bee, how did you know? Thanks for the wishes!
Happy Birthday to you....mine is on the 9th (we are so meant to be friends)...I wish we could celebrate together! sounds as if you will be busy enough...oh and I agree with Kasey...bring all of your exquisite wares...xoxo t
