Holiday Boutique

Well hello out there.  Thanksgiving is past and the Winter holidays are nearly here.  I participated in a Holiday Boutique a couple of weeks ago that wasn't well attended.  The show benefited the Second Chance Pet Adoption and I think they did do pretty well for the pets. My friend Jennifer and I worked hard for weeks preparing prints in mats and frames for sale.  We designed a display and practiced setting up and taking it down. I got one of those credit card swipers for my phone and I did use it for sales.  We didn't sell a lot but we learned a bit about the boutique business.

We've signed up for another Holiday boutique December 7 and 8 in Tustin California. This one includes a tree lighting ceremony and Santa!  I think we'll change a few things in the display and hope for the best.  You wouldn't believe all the time, energy and cash I've invested in this project.  I think I've mentioned before I recently caught ambition and I'm still burning with the fever.

Please come visit the show if you are local to area, If you come to the show and tell me you read this blog I will be so happy that I will GIVE you a free print.  Limit 10 giveaways!!
