My First Art Fair!


I'm thrilled to tell you that I've been accepted to the 43rd annual Syracuse Arts & Crafts Festival! I was a bit nervous about getting in because it's a juried show, I've never done one, and they wanted pictures of my booth! Ack! I don't have a booth! Because I've never done a show! So I threw myself into the process of creating a fake booth so I could submit the skellies for this festival.

That hurdle cleared, it was on to the process of creating a REAL booth! I got a 10x10 tent, which takes up nearly my whole backyard, and I made a 35-pound weight for each of the legs from PVC pipe and concrete (see the tutorial I followed). They feel like they weigh a lot more than 35 pounds!

I'll post pictures of the display as I get it worked out; in the meantime, why not set the festival dates on your calendar (July 26-28), you know, in case you want to come down and see the skellies in person :) 

Skelly Love, Leigh
