rain rain, seriously, GO AWAY!

.
.




ive been working my butt off the past 3 months or so, and spending every dime i made on this street fair (supplies, table clothes, etc.) and the whole thing was a bust.. it rained all day, until about 4, leaving about 1 hour of real business. i spent $85 on the booth rental, and made $130, so i made $45. not counting the hundreds of dollars ive spent on supplies... anyway, i hate to be negative. im not mad about all this, im just a little let down. i was really looking forward to a successful day at the street fair.. oh well. ill try again in october. im not a quitter when its something i love.



you can see, the front of our tables are SOAKED. i had to move everything up about 3 feet for the first few hours of the fair.








we were so desperate, by 4:00 we were selling our soap and candles for buy one get one free- just to sell something. that would be two bars of soap for $3... yeah. and two candles for $6ish.


but like i said, im an optimist, soo im not TOO broken up about the whole thing. not the end of the world.

in other news, the boy in the booth next to me was extremely cute. i think ive seen him at the buddhist temple. hes thai, and i dont know anything about him, except that hes a very very handsome boy. i didnt talk to him, although i kinda wanted to. i just dont really have the confidence. i say stupid things to people who im NOT smitten with, soo yeah i can only imagine what dumb crap id say. plus, i like being single and free right now- i dont want the hassle of romance and heartbreak. *i know, i know, thats no kind of attitude* aanyway, my point is, cute boy. i like him.

this is what im all about









i love love love making things. i REALLY love making things pretty. i made this soap a couple weeks ago, then i thought i would make them pretty with little labels. (i have 3 to 7 bars of each of these) before i switched my major over to fine arts, i was a graphic design major. so making labels and things is super fun for me. im pretty happy with them. :) i worked my butt off too - it was time consuming.. anyway, i need help. how much should i charge for each bar at the street fair saturday? i was originally thinking $4 each, since i really put a lot of work into them. but do you think ill sell more at $3? is $4 too expensive for a street fair? help help help!
