PA Guild Show

This weekend is the Pennsylvania Guild Fine Craft Fair! I am really excited for this one because first, this is wearableJULES second time appearing at this show and secondly, the craft fair is being held at the Lancaster Convention Center. The building is gorgeous, it’s right in downtown Lancaster (plenty of parking either on street or in garages), and of course there are great places to grab lunch and make a day at the show. There is still time to save $2 on your tickets so go HERE to get yours today. Make sure to come say hello, check out the new Sputnik Pins & Necklaces, the new Berry Line (Necklaces Bracelets & Mix Match Earrings), and of course Santa Peep-Peeps will be making their first appearance of the season.

RAWards Semi Finals ~ I am still gearing up for the RAWards on Thursday November 17th.

Snow in October? Really…

Maybe it’s just me but over the weekend it felt like it was mid November with all the snow… I did get to throw a few snow balls at my husband, which he did not appreciate but I sure did! And there was still some snow to be seen on my favorite holiday (besides my birthday, and yes its a holiday to me) which happened yesterday! Oh Halloween how I love you! I know Halloween has passed, but as a special treat, some of the Spooky Peeps are on sale until November 8th. Get yours now and be peeped out for next Halloween. Click HERE to check out your Spooky Peeps.

The next show will be the Pennsylvania Guild Show at the Convention Center, November 12 & 13. Santa Peeps will be available just in time for this Holiday Season. When you buy your tickets online by November 10 you will save $2! Come out and start your holiday season right… support handmade local artists.

Shall we have a drum role please?!…. RAWards Semi-F

Lots of News

Wow, it feels like forever since I have blogged, but lets get right into it! First things first~

The Very Crafty Wedding~was absolutely amazing, and let me tell you, the fact that the wedding was so “us”, artsy & quirky, we (my now husband woowoo and myself) have been told we had the best wedding by far! So go with your gut and do things your way. It may be a little more work, but the fact we did things “non-traditional” (Asian food, I-pod hooked up to our computer, etc.) our guests had a complete blast. It was a wonderful feeling to see everyone having so much fun and letting loose. I can’t wait for our photos because I will be putting some up for everyone to check out.

Next Show!~ wearableJULES will be attending for the first year The Craft Show at the Academy Art Museum Friday October 21 to

Back to the Studio

Ok… after a bit of time off from doing my annual summer camp and beach going I am officially back in the real world. Well as much as I can be since the count down to the wedding has begun (less than a month away time flies!). Currently I am working on another gallery exhibit (details to follow once I have them). But lets get down to business….

Craft Show Review: I know it’s been a little bit, but the last show I was in was the Hamilton Street Festival~ to start, load in was a little confusing since there was no one at the barricades on the street, so you kind of needed to figure out how to get onto the street yourself. Once on the street, it was easy to find your spot since it was clearly marked. Attendance was wonderful with many shout outs for wearableJULES, but no one was buying. Good music and food. Since it was only one day and not too long, the heat was bearable (def bring the sunscreen even if under a tent).

18th Annual Hamilton Street Festival

Next week I will not be blogging due to my yearly summer camp working with some wonderful young ladies =D I am really pumped for this year of camp, but then realized I would not be able to blog (since it’s an overnight camp with no technology). I figured it would be smart to let you know of the new show added to my list of events. This one will be the last one before the big day in September. So the next show will be a one day show on Saturday July 30th in Baltimore for the Hamilton Street Festival. There will be multiple stages, food, crafters, and appareantly some beautiful cars. The show runs from 11am-7pm. It is sure to be a blast… even if it may be a little toasty out.

wearableJULES BABY: Really exciting news! wearableJULES BABY has its first retail location in McKees PA (real close to Pittsburgh)! The little cuties will be available at the Happy Baby Company in August. Be sure to check them out. Not in the area? No worries, be sure to check out the wearableJULES baby onesies online HERE or ETSY.

A Very Crafty Wedding: Well it is getting close to the date… eeeeeeeeee. So much
