Spring Art & Craft Shows

Well, it is spring, almost feels like summer. We have done a few shows already and some have been good, others not so good. Conyers Cherry Blossom Festival, March 28 & 29th, the last weekend of March. The weather is always unpredictable and we will NEVER do a show on this weekend, that is outside, ever again.

Lemonade Days in Dunwoody, April 17 & 18th, was pretty good. They lined us up on the mail street leading down to the amusements and I believe this helped with more sales. Weather was ok.

Inman Park Festival, April 25 & 26th, was our best Inman Park. We had a new spot on Hurt Street, and with our new display, that my wonderful sister Donna Myrick designed and build, was a show stopper and we had pretty good sales. And thanks to our neighbors for the FREE carpet !!

We will be at Roswell Square this coming weekend for the Colors of Arts Festival. Come out and see out new display and buy your Mother and nice handmade gift.

Hope to see you at one of ours shows !

The Pineapple Bead

Well I think that I might just be hooked on doing sculptural beads. I have a wonderful customer/student that requested a pineapple bead, and the pineapple means "Welcome".

So, for all of your South Carolinians, I will have these available on my etsy shop soon.

Yummy, I think all this talk about pineapple has made me hungry.

So, have a great evening !!!
