Craft Fair


The next two months are about preparing for a craft fair. I have never participated in one and I am curious as to whether my items are even desirable. I craft with trash and I do get compliments on my items but are they worth selling? Only one way to find out if I am contributing to the green. I have committed to crafting with five plastic bottles per week.

Remember the McDonald's play area, where the kids jumped and play in the colored plastic balls? Well, that is what my garage looks like, but with plastic bottles. I highly doubt that five bottles per week will make a dent in my garage, but it is a start.

I have fallen so behind with my responsibilities to my home. I don't know how others feel, but with the economy the way it is sometimes I just feel like walking. But, I am old school, so I will hang in there as I always do and I know things will work out. My house has always been an investment, and what you put inside is what makes it a home. I know it is just material, but I have always relied on my home helping me through tough times as far as credit and equity. Not the case in this day and time, so I depend upon trash at this point.

So away I go to crafting pretending like everything is ok and hopefully everything will be in balance as long as I keep the pace and pursue to move forward and be contributing in some form or other.

If you don't hear from me in awhile, you know I am lost in the garage or stuck in an enormous pile of plastic bottles. Please call for help!!!
