    I never thought my one little corn festival booth would set off such an avalanche!

    I had a wonderful experience at the festival... sold lots!

    I opened an Etsy store and sold a little more.

    I had a woman stop me at church today (dropping kids off for youth group) asking if I have my stuff in a store and where can they buy it. She bought from me at Corn Fest. I told her she can come by and look at all my stuff... just let me know! Yikes... better get my house a little more presentable in case she wants to drop by.

    The owner of Curves invited me to display some jewelry in her place... Sold some there. Restocked once already.

    I thought this was a hobby... it's turning into a business! All this has happened in one month. Now I'm signed up for 3 home parties and 2 craft shows before Christmas. Love it! Wish me luck!

    Hey Lee, I have an Etsy store if you want to see my things. I don't know if it's kosher to post a link here. Just pop me a pm!
