I’m so happy to have sold out of the small collection of Big Lug handbags I brought with me to Renegade last weekend! I didn’t manage to take photos of each bag I made for the fair, but this collage shows the variations I’ve made for the Etsy site pre-fair.

Major thanks to all the new Big Lug owners out there, including super-talented artist Kelly Rae who took this beautiful photo of her brand new bag! I found her post this morning while looking through my site stats. Thanks Kelly!

If you have photos of yourself with your new Big Lug, I’d love to see them too!

I had the most amazing time selling my wares at the SF Renegade Craft Fair this weekend!

Thanks so much to everyone who visited the booth and checked out the goods, and *big fat* XOXO’s to those of you who purchased an item of your very own!!! I so appreciate that. Talk about warm & fuzzies!

Super major thanks as well to my hubs for being so supportive all the weeks leading up to the fair…and being right there with me both days, all day long! And thanks to my girls Clara and Jenn for helping us (wo)man the booth on Sunday so we could check out and splurge our earnings on other crafters’ goods!

I like this photo from Kevin for so many reasons:

a) It shows us in the middle of a sale – YAY!
b) It catches Jimmy totally struggling (and sweatin’ it…literally) with the knucklebuster
c) You can see Olivia giving him grief in the background
d) You can see me laughing at him from the side
e) I can see what the table looked like from the other side!

As my very first fair, the process and the whole experience – in addition to being one of the funnest things I’ve ever done – was also an incredible learning opportunity. I’ll post more about it in the coming weeks (after I move out of my condo this weekend!) but wanted to start out by celebrating the whole affair and saying my thanks online!Similar Posts:
