The first installment of
The North Market's Artisan Sundays was a blast! Despite being a bit stressed about my set-up (so much stuff, so little time to get organized!), I thought my booth looked pretty good.
Special thanks to
Olivera for lending me her fabulous folding table.
My booth was right between Lenny from
L. Cabanero Designs (plush-maker and City Sampler contributor) and Clint from
Galaxy Reno (screen printed poster-y goodness). Below are some of Lenny's lovable creatures.
Chris from
Bootleg had some excellent t-shirts. I wish I had more time to wander around and check out all of the yummyness. That breakfast t-shirt is calling my name.
Way at the other end was
Anne, with her clean and modern jewelry and her fabulously uncluttered display.
Patrice was across from me and she had some great new pendants and a bright new business card design. She decided to forgo the tent (too complicated to put together!) and bask in the sunshine.
One highlight of the day was the
Elvis Costello sighting!! We were alerted to his presence right as I met
Brandon, who borrowed my camera to get a closer look. I sent him with an "Ohio Love" pin and an "I Heart You" pin to give to Mr. Costello, who thanked Brandon for the cool "badges" and let him snap this photo. I had great hopes of him visiting my booth, but he seemed to be in a hurry and headed out pretty quickly.
At the end of the day, Lenny and I traded: I scored this adorable new friend and she now has a cool pendant necklace.
