Holly Fest 2007

The Friends School of Baltimore held their annual Holly Fest Saturday, November 17, 2007. I had my first craft fair booth!
Kirk was a very good salesman. In fact we had the best sales while he was there! I think his presence also happened to coincide with the day's shopping rush, but that's okay. I'm pretty sure he's good luck!

It was a fun experience for a first-timer. I'd definitely recommend that anyone wishing to give their small business a whirl in the marketplace, give Holly Fest a try. It's really well organized and easy to set up and breakdown at the end of the day. Perhaps I'll find another fun craft fair to participate in this winter.

Save a cup cozy, SAVE THE WORLD!

Yes, folks, you TOO can save the world. Saving the world is no longer reserved for characters on that TV show HEROES (although they're pretty good at it). So I had a fun idea to do a little sewing (sort of) and a bit of ironing (fusible webbing), and viola! The embroidery on these are all my own design. So, these are WAY cooler than those cardboard ones you get standard with your cup. And you can just toss them in your purse to use again and again.

There are also some additional designs and colors (including a neutral "oatmeal" color and red--both not shown)
Also, new are cozies with ribbon embellishments! These make a great addition to a gift card from a coffee shop.
