CW & I took the Goobers to a local Art Fair (yeah..it was dumb but...)last Saturday. We went to meet up with a couple of his friends from out of state that he hasn't seen in a long time. Unfortunately the stupid thing started at 11AM (we got there around 11:15AM) and NOBODY, I mean NOBODY was fully set up! Not the sellers, vendors and even the local shops were unprepared for the crowd. What the..?!?! A couple good things came out of this though: CW got to talk (albeit briefly as the children were VERY hungry) to one of his friends, we scored a 1983 mint Godzilla for the eldest Goob for his impending Godzilla Birthday Party and the reason I am bloggin: possible selling of some crafts.
See, as we walked and scanned the half set up booths...I realized, "I can make this crap!" Not that what people were hocking was crap..well...LOTS of it was but...some stuff was truly made by artisans of their craft. Anyway, so now I have been toying with the idea of making some stuff and seeing how it would sell at these arty farty shindigs. LOL! Okay, so I probably shouldn't deem them as such but this particular Art Fair...ugh! All it needed was a Goth Drag Queen singing ABBA!
But what to sell?! Aprons, totes, children's clothing, quilts, a combination? Something to mull around and decide if it would be something worth investing time and money into. Hmmm...
