Spring Fling

Wow! I feel like I haven't blogged in such a long time. I don't think I even did a blog about the Christmas Show. And now that Christmas is over and gone, I am thinking about the Spring Show in March. And All the New things I am doing to offer in the store in 2011. But, first here's what I've been working on today. This is my first piece for the Spring Show to be held at the Rockingham County Fairgrounds in March.
It is a decoupage glass vase. I love the selection of my papers for this vase, reminds of a Victorian Era! This piece hasn't been finished yet, because it still needs to be sealed with Modge Podge. But, I couldn't wait to give my fans and customers a sneak peek of what's to come in 2011!

Next, for the spring line up I will be offering in the store a wide variety of colors of the ribbon flowers. Small and Medium one's will be available in the store and at the Spring Show. These are wonderful for cards, pages, or to make hair bows yourself! Here's a preview of some!

I will also be offering soon Ribbon Flower Hair Bows as well. Still waiting on those supplies to come in from Thailand. This is just a few of the new items to hit the store and the shows in 2011! I can't wait to see what I get inspired to do next!
Have a safe, prosperous, and happy New Year everyone!

Gearing Up For 2011

Now that the Craft Show is over and done with. What's next for Inspired Creations? Well, all the old inventory or what is left that didn't sell at the show is in the process of being put up for auction on Ebay! Except the Book Marks, which are being re-listed in the Bonanza Store, with free shipping. All new product will be posted up in the Bonanza store once I get it done. This week John and I will be posting like crazy to get everything back in place and I will also be filling that custom order for 50 Note Cards as well.
We have decided to do the Spring Show in March and add some new items, such as the wood signs to our booth. Here's some photo's of the craft show!

We were set up by the main entrance door and it was cold! While we didn't sell as much as we hoped we would, it felt really confident after talking with some other sellers that it was a slow weekend for them also.

We didn't have the most impressive booth there. But, for our first time it was a wonderful experience, with many things to learn! My CD/DVD gift holders and gift tags were a big hit!

Tomorrow's The Big Day!

Starting at 9 am (earlier because we have to finish setting up) John and I will be at the 35th Annual Christmas Arts and Crafts Show and Sell at the Rockingham County Fair Grounds! We will be there 9-4 on Saturday and 10-4 on Sunday. Free Admission to the Public and Ample Free Parking for everyone! We will be in booth number 77!
I am so excited. We are going over tonight for 2 hours to take tables and inventory over and start setting up my first booth. John couldn't get the stained glass ornaments done in time, so I've added a few extra's to take. Such as the pleated Ribbon Flowers!
It's in the main building! I've never been to a function like this at the fair grounds, just the barn party before I joined our church. I'm excited to see everything and what the other sellers are bringing in and how they set up their booths!
I have nothing else lined up after this show, well, cept the 50 Custom Cards to make for my great Aunt. So, don't forget you can now use the Contact me tab on my fan page to place custom orders or questions! And the store will re-open on the 6th of December!
