Half way through

Hello everybody!

I'm getting ready for day 2 of Puces Pop spring show. Right this moment, this is how I feel:

I'm exhaustipated (just in case the picture wasn't clear)... I had so much fun yesterday and I'm really looking forward to another great day full of wonderful customers, but it is exhausting work...

So, this post is to let you know that I have indeed survived and ready for the next one. I'll give you a full recap of the show once it's done (and once I've slept a few days...). If you can, please drop by to see me!

What's up Montreal - Puces Pop Spring

If you are in the neighbourhood, please drop by! Hope to see you there!

Final preparations

I have to say that I'm feeling pretty good. No last minute panic (yet) everything seems to be in order...

*knocks on wood*

I did a final run through of everything tonight, so here's a sneak peek of what things will look like tomorrow (well, actually today since it's already past midnight).

I'm really happy how the tags turned out, you can see them on the dividers in the cards bins.

I printed several different signs in (obviously) both languages. Hopefully they'll be easy to spot and the letters are large and friendly (nerd-alert)!

Naturally the world's tackiest tablecloth was laid out and ready to go.

Alrighty, better go get some sleep. Wish me luck for tomorrow (pretty please)!

Friday inspiration

Unexpectedly I am not looking at craft show displays or last minute packaging ideas. Nope. That would unnecessarily stress me out. I figure that since this is only my second show, I know I'll have room for improvement, but at least I learned from last time. Right?

So, today, I'm inspired by pretty things. Noting to do with the fair, just pretty.

The colour combinations are delicious.

My to do list is still a mile long, so I need to run off. However, before a hectic day, I think some prettiness was in order.

Got plans for the weekend?

Taking stock

It's 2 days to go until the show and it's time to go over everything I have, need and can still make. I have a good amount of products to bring with me and there are still things in various stages of readiness. I'm trying to think about this so that anything I finish between now and Saturday is a bonus.

I am ready to go with the items I have at this point. Of course, the more selection I have, the better. This is especially true since every items I make is unique. I can't make the same thing twice.

I have a lot of new types of greeting cards, very different from what I had at the last show.

I'm also introducing the notebooks, which are completely new to the Brinner product line.

I'm finalizing my table set up today and tomorrow, so you'll get to see the final results either after the show or at the show if you get a chance to drop by. I think I'd better go make a to do list and check if there's anything I still need to pick up.

Yay, so excited!
