Renegade Chicago was a success!!! The weather couldn't have been nicer, tons of people and tons of really cool handmade goods. I've never participated in a craft fair this big before, there were 300 vendors and I was only able to take a quick power walk around the fair but there was just so much cool stuff that it was a little overwhelming! I met some awesome crafters and made a few trades, which are my fav! Monday I took an extremely long nap and today I'm trying to get back in work mode.
Saturday morning set up

Wow! Where I come from, it is time to pack up and go at 4:00! That is awesome. I am glad it was a success for you.
ReplyDeleteI am so overwhelmed when I think about doing a show! How do you get inspired and organized enough to handle it all?
ReplyDeleteSycamore, I started sewing for this fair over a month ago. I had a big chart on the wall with the stuff I wanted to get done so it was always staring me in the face. I think the biggest thing really is to get started crafting as soon as you can.
ReplyDeleteWow great photos! Congrats!
