Wow, what an amazing day we had yesterday at the 9th Annual Homemade Harvest Open House.

I was so happy to see a wonderful turn out with the torrential downpour outside. We had a steady flow of traffic from 12 to 6pm. I usually have balloons out with my signs, but the rain didn't allow that this year. The signs had to go out balloonless and came home soaked.

There were 7 cozy vendors in my living room. I used my studio space to sell my items to help make more room this year. I wish I could have taken twice as many.

This year was a real family affair with my daughters more involved.
My middle daughter set up her
items on my sewing machine and gave polymer clay demos all day. This worked out great since she helped answer questions about my items.
My oldest daughter (mostly) helped with the cash register and (mostly) hung out with her friends that came to make art with her sister.
My youngest spent her day sharing some one on one time with her baba (Arabic for dad) but did come towards the end and managed to sell a few of her fuse beads creations. It's been so wild watching them be more active in this event as the years go. Maybe I can retire in a few years and they can organize this?
Shukran (thank you) to everyone that came. I'm looking forward to writing a ton of thank you cards this week. And sending nice checks to the artists that you bought from. Just a reminder that other then a small amount taken out for food, every dime you spent yesterday will go in the hands of these hard workers.
