“Mom, do I look cute?” my daughter asked as she studied herself in the full-length mirror. “Yes, you do look cute. But honey, it really won’t matter how you look. We will be in a building full of nothing but nerdy women.”
(Turns out… I was wrong!)
Soon after, we were on the road with grandma and a friend for the 27th Annual Virginia Beach Spring Craft Market.
The young woman who made this was extremely talented and shared tips on drilling sea glass. I was happy to find sea glass drilling is slow for EVERYONE, not just me.
You have to admit… it would work!
I fell in LOVE with this necklace. I didn’t have any money with me, but want it like a little girl jumping up and down crying kind of want it. You can see this woman’s incredible work HERE. I hope that whomever gets this piece will love it just as much as I did!
If you know Totoro, you know this little guy!
I had to walk closer to read the sign… see below.
After all, we WERE at a craft show!
My daughter’s first purchase was for the dogs. I love that girl. Here is what she came home with:
Homemade dog treats, natural pina colada lip balm and polymer clay earrings.
As we walked towards the car after our adventure, I asked my daughter and her friend what they liked the most. Her friend blurted out, “THE SOUP!”
Ummm… weren’t we at a CRAFT SHOW?
My daughter explained. “Yea Mom. These people were selling soup packets they made and had free samples. She was hungry and went to every-single-one! They were SO GOOD!”
Some people go to Craft Shows for sea-glass jewelry ideas. Others go to look at handmade clothing and art. And then there are those who go for…. The Soup.
