EVENT ROUNDUP

Our hashtag for this event was #heartsandlemons - search it on facebook and insta to see all the posts from the weekend!
​
Close to my Heart was in the house! Kim Wolff, Central Square, NY and Shelly Straub, Milford, CT (Independent Consultants) teamed up for a weekend Expo!

Friday night, attendees were encouraged to purchase tickets for the early bird make n' take, which also offered admission into the Expo on Saturday and Sunday.  Kim and I had no idea what to expect being our first show of this size. We were pleasantly surprised to find a seriously fun and energetic crowd ready to make it and take it!  This event was from 6:30-9:30pm

We made 3 tags using the Close to my Heart Into the Wild paper pack

Happy crafters show off their tags!

After 300 tags in 3 hours...

Products used for the tags:

Saturday's make n' take - learning the stamp 'dragging' technique to make the watering can look weathered. Also used liquid glass on the flowers.

Saturday was a blast!

Kim had a waiting line at her make n' take table most of the day.

Nani (Shelly's mom) helped crafters purchase their items. 

We met and chatted with so many wonderful people! Thank you to all who stopped in today!

Many came back to learn how to make the bag that was shown with Friday's make n' take.

Sunday offered a bit more time for personal service. The aisle ways were not as crowded, the promoters offered DONUTS and the door prizes continued just as they had on Saturday. 

Bri came to help us at the register today!

​The make n' take at our booth today was a subway tile embossed grafiti covered card with a flip flap on the inside to hold a gift card. Showing crafters the versatility of flip flaps took them right off the shelf!

The promoters offered a special rate at the Holiday Inn, Auburn hotel.

Great customer service and a special shout out to Michael at the bar who took our 'Burger Theory' food order just minutes before closing time. After set up on Friday, we were exhausted and famished - thank you for the great grub and drink at the bar!
