Okay, is it crazy that I am already planning my fall craft show schedule? Yes, that is what I'm doing already. I'll be showing and selling my wares at Harvest Festival, Steve Powers Craft Festival, McQueen Craft Faire, and Art in the Park (jury committee willing). There are always a few home shows in the mix, and then I want to add a couple of Arizona and California events if there is time and product.
There is a huge stack of wood that needs to be cut into wonderful pieces to paint into treasures. I said I would be more prepared than last year. I plan to cut while the weather is cooler so I don't have sawdust sticking to my sweat covered body in July and August...honestly, there is nothing sexy about it. lol My bandsaw needs a new part and is just a bench top model, so I'll be loading up the trailblazer with wood and the dog and heading to my dad's to use his full size tools. It's so much easier and faster to get things cut...just not an easy, quick event. I like to get lots done while I am there so it seems like I'm there all day when I do that. But, I come home with a week's worth of painting to get done so I guess it's all good. I'm looking at doing lots of larger pieces this year so I'm excited to get started.
