Ok, so I'm not gonna lie...even though mankind CAN try my patience, I actually REALLY do like people! Living out here where there aren't many people, I find myself craving them sometimes. So back to the market I went this weekend! I REALLY had fun last weekend when I sit down and look back at it and you know, the cash is nice. Plus, to have more room on my soap shelves to make MORE fun soaps is really helpful too!
See, when I really looked at it, I had lotions a-plenty, and TONS of stuff I have been making since February and March - like for real, probably 200 or 300 bars of soap (when I count I'll let you know). I'm not gonna lie, even though that one redneck kinda pushed my buttons, most of the people I met were pretty awesome. And yes, the lady with the noisy toys...the toys drove me AND come to find out another lady nuts LOL...but she was at least nice. So, I loaded up and headed back this weekend - I know, crazy right? But why pay for insurance if I'm not gonna make an effort and really sell some stuff eh? Plus, with baby goats coming I won't be able to do it again for a few weeks at least ya know? Can't leave when mommas are due any minute....
Anyways, I HAD A BLAST!!! Met some awesome people, pretty much sold out of everything else I had that was ready to go and now I am WHOOPED! Overall, the environment is relaxed, the market handles all the "tedious" part as everything is covered so no tent needed, and they have a LARGE table in each space so I don't even have to mess with that either! Just show up and put out my stuff :) I think I might be addicted lol :)
Plus, get this - they do a drawing each day at 3p.m. for a space number and the winner gets $50 - and GUESS WHAT!!! No, really, guess...come on, guess.....YES!!!!!!! I won today!!!!!!!!!! And to be honest, I NEVER win anything, not even a dollar on a scratch off! No, seriously - the only stuff I ever win is phone calls from time shares :P and I won something :)
So, I had a tiring but fruitful weekend. Now, I need to regroup, get pictures of last weeks work posted for ya'll, and get ready for baby goats AND my garden...oh my sad attempts at a garden :( I HAVE to get on that! But oh yes, I think I am an addict to selling things, I KNOW I love talking about my goats and my soaps all day and I will return!
OH! I forgot to say...when you ask "Where have you been?" I have been at "Olde Security Square" - and I have LOVED IT!
Nearly natural soaps, lotions, scrubs and more! Always finding ways to incorporate the awesome creamy goodness of my fresh goats milk into bath and body products meant to soothe and care for the skin! Also as time rolls on adding some other things to the line up to spice it up a bit....a touch of crochet....some plushies....random things ;) Makes my day a little more interesting.
