A season full of MEH and some exciting news.

This years holiday season was a series of new shows and, ultimately, bad choices for myself. Even the few good shows that I clung to for dear life ended up being disappointments. Many of them seemed to be a combination of poor marketing, new organizers, and an overall lack of effort. I made enough to sustain myself for January, but my stretch goal of having my bills paid for February is not going to happen this month.

In any case, it’s given me more time to work on my e-book. YES! This was the big news I had mentioned in a prior post.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what I know/do well. Frankly, it isn’t much. That said, I have had almost 8 years of experience in the world of craft shows and so many have asked me for guidance at shows…where to find them, where to get this display or that table…that I realized I DO have a vast knowledge of this. As I transition out of the world of shows and into more wholesale, I want to pass on the tips and tricks I’ve had to learn the hard way, to spare some of you those financial mistakes!

The book will be released on this blog in early 2012, so please keep an eye out for it.
