Cascade Heights and PCC!

These past two weeks have been a whirl wind! Between getting ready for finals, slaying finals, bazaars and custom orders we are ready for Christmas break!

Saturday the first we were at Cascade Heights public charter school. Now Karis and I have never heard of this school and I vaguely knew what a charter school was. To say the least we didn't know what to expect. We set up shop the night before and arrived Saturday morning expecting the worst and hoping for the best.

It was a blast! We were busy most of the day and most of the people we were having transactions with were kids. They were pretty amazing.

 Karis of course.
Soon I'll put up pictures of both of us. So you know we are both real.

We loved this bazaar! I heard whispers and them doing it again next year but trying to advertise it more. We will be there. ;D

We met a wonderful lady who was selling reusable sandwich bags that Karis fell in love with. Check her out at her Etsy shop!

And our box farm animals. Always a hit!

The Portland Community College bazaar was interesting. We knew about this one because Karis used to go to PCC for Japanese. So it is understood by all persons involved PCC is a FLYING PONY away from our house. To get there we took the Sellwood bridge which is a nightmare in the morning. After traversing the treacherous roads we made camp in the college center of the campus. It was a very long bazaar (8am - 6pm) and it felt like it was slow going. We did loose quite a bit of sales because we do not accept debit while we are at bazaars. So next year, or maybe as soon as spring, expect us to have the fancy square! The marvelous device that quickly and simply allows us to take your money.

WOW! This is a longer than usual post. I am sorry for the longedness and dryedness. I hope future posts are more joyful and glorious.

I want to give a shout out to one of our followers Markus. Follow his blog here. Here is a cute male fellow who lives in Europe, as I'm told. He has an adorable pattern on his blog for a christmas tree. Thanks for being amazing Markus!

I was on the internet, as I do, when I came across these super cute amazing flowers.

OMG they're so pretty! geisha would wear them in their hair, kanzashi flowers. They are super easy to make, it's pretty much origami with fabric

Here are some of our results!

 

They're in that awkward first learning stage but I just geek at how adorable they are. I love it!

Most of this made possible by glue gun international. Helping people appear like they have skill since 1954 

And that's basically what I've been doing. I assembled a few dolls Dea crocheted and have finally finished writing up my horse pattern that's been in the works for a few weeks. I'll make a post about it sometime (maybe). And now I am going to make a dinosaur pattern! Who doesn't love a good dinosaur? 

And the Etsy shop is in the works : ) 

I've signed us up for the Beaverton high school bazaar which is on November 17 and should be amazing but now I'm being paranoid about stock. It should all work out in the end because crafting is the only thing that keeps me sane. 

See you next time!
