July 24, 200817 yr TODAY IS MADE OF WIN!!!!!!!!! I had a booth at the Gloucester farmer's market, people loved my stuff (gave out many many business cards), and I made about $100 in 3 hours, and lined up several commissions: 2 big fancy spatulas, a pair of big fancy salad servers, a set of hinges, and an organic form lantern holder and a handle for a nice push mower. All on a rainy day. Outside. I also worked 5 hours in the morning (landscaping), and I have the day off tomorrow to do those commissions. Woohoo!!!!! yay!!!! There were also tons of people whom I knew there, which was good fun. Thank you all for being so helpful to me over the past few years, helping me to get this far in smithin'.

July 25, 200817 yr Congrats Archie! Good for you. However, not to detract but I must, simply MUST hear all about the, "wobbly headed Geisha doll caper!" This has the smell of a legendary tale. Frosty
July 25, 200817 yr That's Great Archie. Glad to hear you had a GREAT day. I'll be at the Pensylvania Dutch Days in Hanover, PA. this weekend at the Historical Society. Hoping for as good of day as yours.
July 25, 200817 yr Archie, When are you doing this again? Are you doing any demo's else where? I live about 40 minutes away and would like to come see your work. Maybe learn a thing or ten from you.
July 25, 200817 yr Author August 14th I'll be back, maybe one other time before then. I'm not demo-ing, only selling, but I might have a few tools out to show people or something. it'd be good to see you. be merry, Archie
July 25, 200817 yr Good on you Archie! Nicely done - a word of warning though . . . it can get addictive. Pretty soon you'll be getting all antsy to do the next one . . then the next . . then the next . . . Glad you had a great time!! Ok Randy, wobbly headed Geshia girl caper? You gotta tell us about that . . .
