Crafting Designs

The last craft bazaar of the season is over. Although not everyone could be there with us selling their crafts, my mom, dad, and I had fun seeing people we knew, buying goodies, and selling our crafts. This was the most successful bazaar for me so far. I also had quite a few people asking me if I had a website. This was really encouraging to see that people liked my work and wanted to see more of it. I'm not ready to start a whole business online, but I love doing custom orders for people. At these craft bazaars a lot of people are Christmas shopping for their friends or families. They want to find the perfect, unique gift for them. It is so fun to hear who people are giving my creations to.

There was one particular lady who asked me to make a necklace for her grandson. She told me that her grandson always tells her "I love you to the Moon and Back" when he leaves. She ordered from me at one of the other craft bazaars. I have made a lot of necklaces with this saying on them, but never one for a little boy. This was so sweet. I had a hard time figuring out how to make a necklace that would be perfect for a little boy, but once I figured it out, I was so happy with the outcome. I ended up stamping on a dog tag, adding a piece of leather on top, and a charm. The lady came to the craft bazaar and said she had to find me first. I handed her the necklace, and she was so pleased with how it turned out. She told me that her grandson would love it. I love making people happy, it in turn makes me happy too!!
