After all the vintage fairs I've participated in, I decided that
there is no point in wasting my money to participate as a vendor at such
events any further.
There is no reason for me to pay steadily
increasing fees for spaces steadily decreasing in size, to pack
everything, to unpack, to set an entire booth, to work for hours, repack
everything, and this for the ultimate financial benefit of organizers
who (as in the last event) have the nerve to take out their frustrations
on me. As a vendor paying for a service (the event, its location, and
the public's presence), I expect to be treated politely.
The only ego trip I am willing to be involved in is my own.
So, this may just be the push I needed to stage my own events at my
house, since I have all the space to display whatever I want, a carpool,
two driveways, a huge studio, with no fees to pay, and no space
limitations...
An interesting prospect...

What is a true eclectic to do when her passions lead her in different directions?
This is a blog for the unfocused, the round pegs in the square holes, the short-attention span types, and all those who just can't bring themselves to join the ranks and adhere to a single category of activities or interests...whether sketches, drawings and comics, fixing an old farmhouse in Oregon, or whatever else strikes my fancy.
