Art on the Avenue is May 1st at the Salt Block in Hickory. We are so excited to hopefully set up a tent and sell our creations locally! We now have the task ahead of us of making as many things as we can before then. We all got together yesterday to get a photo of us with our homemade goodness, as requested by the folks reviewing our application for the event. Here's the one we decided on. We took quite a few and I might add some silly ones, too.
We are also throwing around the idea of have trunk type shows at some friends houses to make our fun products more available to people in the area. We would like to do one of these next month, so we have a lot to do! In the midst of all of this Melissa will be having her baby in three weeks! This will be a busy, busy season, but hopefully one that reaps some harvest for us. We feel that we've been putting a lot of time and money into this endeavor and are eager to see some change. We've had our earrings at the Hickory Tree and just recently added a few things to the Hickory Art Museum's gift shop. Our Keeperz Etsy shop has been open for a little under three months now and we have already had a couple of sales. The nature of trying to sell our own homemade goods is a long journey and one we are ready for, but a little encouragement is always nice. :)
We are really excited about spring and being able to get outside! Yesterday was so nice and I (Christa) know that I'm so ready for some warmer weather. My kids desperately need some outdoors time.
