TRYING ON HATS AT 'BUSY HANDS'!





Alex in Queen of Hearts
























Fifty vendors setting up on Friday...




















All the 'Busy Hands' fun is over until next year, but what a great weekend it was!  So nice to see old and new friends and experience the excitement of this outstanding show and sale one more time.  I think the highlight for me each year is the true appreciation people express for the sellers and the fruits of their creative endeavors.  It's very nice to have all your hard work recognized and to see happy shoppers milling about with their bags full of special treasures.

I really enjoy watching the never ending trying on of hats, especially the flamboyant ones!  Even the dogs get in on this action.  I love to do a bit of shopping myself and each year I find unique and special things for gifts along with varied and delectable food items including bread, baking, preserves, veggies and even vegan chocolate! 

So now...it's time for a rest and a think about what's sold and what to make next...hmmm!
