Last Saturday was one of the Christmas fairs that I'm doing this year and it turns out to be the only one. It's going to be the only one for this year because I sold most of my stuff and I have to start replacing everything for next year. Yay!

I have been doing this fair every year for 11 years. It was a really good turn out with a lot of people buying, not just looking.

I took a few pictures of my table. I do the fair with my aunt who crochets and does amazing things. Her stuff always sells out.

You have been very busy Ms. Janine.

Love your work.

Thank you ladies.

Frndly, the snowman and Santa's are decorations to hang up. There's a ribbon/hanger on the back. You can even put it over a door knob.

Hobby, I only have 1 or 2 more packages of the wine glass tags left. I forgot my sample tag with my wine glass to use as a display. I'll have to remember it for next year.

I also have an order for 4 candy sundaes. I'll post a picture when I finish them.

I put in an order a few days ago for more supplies to replace my stock for next year. I work on this stuff all year long. Yes, in the middle of July I'm sitting by my pool making Christmas ornaments.

Scrap4you, yes I use my Cricut for some of these. The door hangers, bookmarks, and the wine glasss tags were made with my cricut. I designed them in Design Studio. I have the cut files if anyone wants them.

My order came today so tomorrow I'm starting for next Christmas.

Frndly, they're dylite shapes that I buy on-line and then I use pins, rocaille beads, and sequins. The laces are ribbon and there is fur around the top of the skate. The blade is made from cut pipe cleaner. I'll post a close up shot of the skate tomorrow. I'll include the link for the company that I buy the shapes from if you want it.
