Our group made $62.50 at The Oaks craft fair on Saturday. Colette and her daughter were there all day. Cindee was there for most of the day with her daughters and I was there for 4 hours with my daughter. Colette made a really cute pair of mister and misses turkeys. If she makes more for our next craft fair (which might be this coming Saturday) I'll get a photo of them and put it here on the blog. A little bit of everything sold from cookies to jewelry and even a few items we had left over from the garage sale.
Cindee will be contacting the American Legion to see of they have a space available for this coming Saturday. It is the only craft fair that is running this next weekend.

Our first craft fair sale
One of the moms managed to get a spot at the local Methodist Church's annual craft fair. The craft fair took place on Nov. 8, 2008 from 10am to 2pm. I took in several machine embroidered items and nice baby quilt. One of the girl's Grandmothers had made several beautiful necklaces and I also saw a few cell phone charms. Two of the moms also baked cookies and cakes.
The quilt got sold as did a few other items. Not many of the cakes sold so they will be frozen for the next sale. When you think about it, Walmart freezes all of their baked goods for transport so we are just following their example.
Not many people were at this years craft sale. I visited that particular craft sale last year and there were more sellers as well as many more buyers. Mostly retired people were the shoppers.
The next craft sale will be this coming weekend (Nov. 14-16, 2008) if we can get a spot in one of them. There are about 3-4 in the local area (Lebanon and Albany, Oregon). I will be making a few stadium/lap blankets with machine embroidered pictures on them. Wish us luck and good sales.
