What a great day yesterday was. My
debut at the Handmade Brigade was a moderate success. I met lots of nice people and sold many of my pendants. It is
trippy to think people will be walking around wearing something I made!
One of the best things about the Handmade Brigade craft show was being surrounded by so many talented Indie
Crafters. I bought a cute little wallet from
Mandalanda made from the inside pages of vintage books, what they do with the covers is they make the these awesome
book cover purses very well made and cute as hell. I bought some nerd, geek, dork button pins from the ladies at
Tired Girl Collective, I put my dork button on right away for the world to see and even wore out to dinner after the show. Nina from
Taco's and Eggrolls was the coordinator of the show, who not only managed the show and the
crafters but ran her own successful booth too, she was great and her jewelry funky and original. I chatted it up with the very creative
Miriam Dema who makes beautiful screen prints and some funky button pins too, which darn it I didn't get a chance to buy any! I guess I am gonna have buy some from her
etsy store :)
The
Porterness booth went around handing out
BUY HANDMADE DAMN IT! stickers which will go right on my car. All and all a very good day.
