At 4am it is still pitch black....

.... and still I rose out of the warm cocoon of my bed to pack my little Corolla to the gills with tables, a tent, table linens, various display items, props, price tags, business cards, ribbon, bows, pens, calculator, signs and of course, jewelry. I drove through the thick fog that had settled into the valley overnight, casting a damp blanket over the entirety of my 30 minute drive to Historic Folsom Sutter St.

In the dark, guided by a overly positive man adorned in a neon orange vest, I found my 10 x 10 spot and claimed it with my EZ-up tent. And then in the dark and in the cold I set-up my booth carefully, draping the table linens just so, tilting each display bust here or there, moving and removing things as my wired mind saw fit. Finally, around 7:45 or so, I was finally satisfied with the state of my booth and sat, begging my darling MT to fetch me a cup of warm coffee (it was 40 degrees out, did I mention that?).

But the rest of the day sped by in a blur. I really do ADORE craft fairs! I met the most gracious people in lovely Folsom today. There was quite a showing at the fair and such lovely, upbeat shoppers! I'm so glad to have made the acquaintance of these lovely folks. I hope they found perusing my booth a bit of fun regardless of whether or not they left with one of my lovely purple bags (yes, they match my gift boxes just *perfectly* - my OCD side won that one).

I'm completely exhausted now, but I just wanted to share with you a few pictures of the booth in case you didn't (or couldn't) make it out today to see me :



Off to bed!
