From Our Hands is now but a memory. I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to vend so often this year. For any of you who vend or have vended, you know it is a lot of work and stressful, especially when you make all your goods. Vending is what allows me to buy wool, go to hook ins, retreats and camps, and to buy my antiques. There is no vending scheduled for many months so now I can create for me.
Here are some pictures from the show.

Sorry ~ not sure of the names of these vendors
Of course, I could not come home empty handed. My favorite purchases are my two vintage Santas. The one on the left is marked Made in Japan. The other is unmarked.
Please remember to honor our military tomorrow. Thank a veteran. Freedom isn't free. God Bless America.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)

Some beautiful wares at that show and such a variety. I'm glad that you now can breathe a sigh of relief with the show and sale over. Your display always looks lovely. I'm sure you did well.
Tomorrow is Remembrance Day. I am grateful for our brave soldiers who gave their lives for our freedom. May we never forget the price they paid.
HUgs, Julia
Your booth looks wonderful, I hope you did well.
Love the santas you found. Every time I hit the antique consignments, I see lots of old santas, and I think of you.

oh I would have spent more than I made! so glad you are successful in your vending.

Yes, I know all too well how much work is involved in making items, setting up and breaking down a show. That's why I don't do it any longer. You have quite a great collection of jewelry made and what good use that vintage welcome mat was. Who'd thunk it?
The show looked great as usual!
What wonderful goodies, gosh I would love to go there. I love your Santa's. I hope you can just create now for awhile.
So glad you are home now for awhile.
Your booth looks great ! Love the cross stitch necklaces ! Hope you did really well !!! Your souvenirs you purchased are so nice ! What a beautiful show it must have been ! Now you can relax & enjoy the Holidays & Hook !!!
So Lauren - are the glass pieces on the chains and sprinkled around stitched? There used to be a designer who made these using antique samplers she cut motifs or new samplers made to look out she cut motifs out of. These make wonderful gifts for stitching friends. I would have gone broke at this show. I have coveted one of Lori Ann's creations for years. I do have a small mouse on a tomato that a DF gifted me. I am always a day (or a few minutes) late and a dollar short on her weekly blog sales. take care Mel
What a wonderful show! So love your Santas too! I collect these myself. Janice
Relax now and enjoy the holidays! But not this snow. Hope you did well, looks like another great show.
