I'm doing a show!



Ok.. a small show. But still.. it's my first one and a good one to get my feet wet. Even if I eat the $25 table fee, it'll be worth it for the experience. Maybe I'll even sell something.. that's the goal anyway :) If I come out even I consider it a bonus.

I think I have everything I need.. I just ordered some earring displays which I did not have before. Not only useful for this show, but for pictures in the future. I'm still looking for an interesting pedestal vanity mirror. I found a cheap plastic one at Walgreens that will work in a pinch, but ultimately not what I really want.

Other than that I should be ready to go.. so far I've got:
*All my jewelry categorized, organized and put into clean zip bags
*Enough decorative bags to put each piece in and some larger ones for multiple purchases
*A flyer depicting gemstone meanings and folklore
*A sign-up sheet for my email list
*Extra business cards
*A bowl to hold business cards for a give-away
*Necklace displays
*A bracelet display
*Earring displays
*A white crushed fake-velvet cloth
*A wooden tray for displaying necklaces
*Rice to put in the tray so the necklaces don't move all over (I saw this once at a craft fair and thought it was a great idea for a display)

And a few other bits and bobs packed away in my tote

The show is the night of the 24th for a women's business group. It even includes dinner. I'm excited!
