Post-Fair Gratitude

Well my holiday fairs are over and I am so flattered and honored at the reactions my pieces garnered.

It is lovely to be complimented on my wire-bending skills, and to have people purchase pieces to give to their loved ones.

Knowing the quotes and songs touch people’s hearts and have meaning to them makes my day, and validates the creation of each piece. I am honored that you shared your moments and intentions with me.

The exertion of hauling bags from one place to the next does come with a weakened immune system, so now I am resting up before planning the coming year.

Thank you to everyone who came buy to each of these fairs to support local artists and shop handmade pieces.

Without you, the pursuit of our passion wouldn’t be possible, and it is great to see that Chicago has a vibrant community of shoppers who seek out local and small business venues over ordering online from big-box manufacturers.

Thank you for supporting me personally, and for giving my pendants, earrings, bangles, necklaces, ornaments and desktop minis new homes.

The more you collect the more I can make, and that is what brings my heart joy.

You can still peruse my wares at the Evanston Art Center’s Holiday EXPO and Dragonfly Boutique in Evanston, at Aurora Rose Boutique in Lemont, and on Etsy.
