cute cat pic of the week

Russ and Jake get cozy on the couch.

I haven't posted in a while, so i have a few things to say. Christmas is coming and the goose is getting fat! But really, it is coming and i don't know how it snuck up me. I think i finally have everyone's christmas presents bought/ordered, so no one will get them in time for christmas (since they're all shipping to my house instead of the recipient's). I haven't even picked out christmas cookie recipes! Sheesh. But, today we are getting the tree, so that's a move in the right direction.

The bazaar bizarre was a success! And a lot of fun too. Everyone was super nice and i was excited to see people showing interest in my pet portraits. I'd also like to give a shout out to the lovely couple manning the Figs and Ginger booth across the row from me. I had a great time in our faux dance off!

I have one more craft fair in Biddeford, ME this saturday. I'd love it if you stopped by! You can check out their blog HERE.

That's all for now folks. Time to get the christmas tree!

Bazaar Bizarre

Come see me this Sunday (Dec. 5th) at the Bazaar Bizarre in Boston! There will be great artists/crafters there, food, music, fun, and merriment! So be there or be square! (Could i fit any more exclamation points in this post? YES!!!!!!!!!)

Seal baby is done and scanned in to my computer, ready to be fixed up and printed out just in time for the bazaar! Don't forget: if you're in the Boston area on sunday dec. 4th, come to Cyclorama and say hello! You can get more information HERE.

ALSO, i got into the Bazaar Bizarre Winter fair! Yaaaaay. Here's hoping i make my deposit back!

Pictures from the bazaar are up! The professional pictures i mean. You can take a look at them on Flickr here. However, there are no pictures of my booth. I saw the photographer walking around taking pictures, and he seemed to avoid my table. Ah well. I did find some pictures that i am in. I drew arrows so it would be easier to find me.

i almost forgot i had a blog...

Well! It certainly has been a while since my last update, and it certainly has been a busy past few weeks. Getting ready for the Bazaar was tough - but i did it! It was a success (despite getting lost on the streets of boston several times), and i'm glad i did it. I just have one more fair tomorrow in Gorham and then i'll be done. Whew!

salmon falls open studios

Well, it's been a while since my last post. Here are some pictures from the open studios i did with my mom last weekend. It went pretty well - and i learned how to use my credit card machine thingy! So that's good. I didn't sell too much, but at least i made back my entry fee for the bazaar. Yaay!

This week i will be limiting my time spent online and (hopefully) will be buckling down and getting everything ready for sunday. There sure is a lot to do. I'm afraid some things i ordered won't make it in time, and then my stocks will be low. I'm sure they'll be low anyway...i am starting to panic. Anyway, i hope everyone had a nice thanksgiving and maybe i'll update this week sometime to tell of my immense progress.

I've taken outdoorsy shots of my Chubbikins, and i have to say: they look pretty darn cute in their natural habitat! I will have to take some more though- i didn't get great shots of some of them (mainly the ones i took at the end of the day when i was tired and getting grouchy). You can take a look at them in my Flickr here.

Well, i did it! I sent off my application to the Bazaar Bizarre. I'll find out whether i got in or not on the 15th (i think). Keep your fingers crossed!
