Julie's table - yummy treats and beautiful sewn bags.

I had to take this man's picture - he was there all day with his beautiful McCaw (sp?).

Miss Apple Blossom Teen - admiring Midges jewelry.



Over all the festival was a lot of work. The wind kept us on our toes the 2nd day but, the exposure and the sales that came in was worth it to me. I hope to do more exhibits in the near future.

Apple Blossom Festival

For those who do not know about the Apple Blossom Festival in Winchester, VA please visit http://www.thebloom.com/ for all the details. Our little town grows by over 250K for a week or two during the festival. Parades (several), the circus, the carnival, golf tournaments, luncheons, pageants, etc. all make this event something to come and see.

I have the plates in the Apple Blossom souvenir shop along with some votives and they are moving fairly well so far. The store opened up on March 30th and will be there for about 8 weeks or so.

I am participating with a booth space at the Wine & Arts Festival which is April 24th (2 pm to 9 pm)& 25th (11 am to 6 pm). This event kicks off Apple Blossom and is located down on the walking mall in old town Winchester. I'm hoping the weather will be clear and the rain will hold off - as I hear last year the weather was not so great. I will sharing a 10x20 space with my neighbor who sells beautiful sterling silver jewelry.

Hope you can stop by!
