My last burst for my craft show debut as a jeweler.
(I am sorry I don't have picture of my perspiration)
I found this event on Craigslist and booked for the first time.For playing piano in front of many people, my butterfly doesn't seem to appear anymore but for this day of my first craft show, I was really nervous!
It was a fundraiser for Northeast Animal Shelter in Salem, MA.
I was one of their few vendors and I got the best spot as close to the door!
(I have no idea what's the best anyway...)
This was the event for pets to take picture with Santa!
The event was from 11AM to 4 PM.
I had pretty good sales but one thing. Absolutely, mine looked very inexperienced and Japanese.
My First Sign
The ladies were confused with my engrish.com sign

So I made new one

Here's the pictures of my table

Happy Jeweler JP
My friend who lives close to the event came to visit me with their dog!!
It was sooo nice to see my friends there : D
Then my highlight of the day!
My lovely husband and Soba came to visit me.
Soba got a chance to meet Santa and take photo with him.


THEN while I was taking photo with Santa and Soba,,,
My husband was forced to watch my table...
When I came back, he gave me this hard cold cash!!!
He sold 3 sets of earrings!! WOW! I should have invited him earlier.
Please don't come after me and rob me but.....
I made almost $130 that day! : D

Congratulations on your first craft show! It looked great! I am so glad you were able to make $130!! Plus the pictures with Santa are so cute of Soba.
I have to tell you something funny. We are naming our baby boy Ryan Jared, after my husband Jared Ryan. I told my mom, (she is deaf and thinks weird sometimes), and she said "Are you naming him after your cousin Ryan?" I laughed and told her no, but I think she still thinks I am. lol. So you can tell Ryan that my mom thinks this baby is named after him... :)

Thanks! I loved the photo of Soba with Santa also!
I saw that name on your blog!
I didn't know that was your husband's last name.
My husband our future son to name the same as him which we don't have that tradtion in Japan.
No one does that in Japan.
I told him it would be too confusing!
Ryan is my husband's middle name. So our baby will have his middle name as first name, and his first name as middle name. I think you are right, it is confusing! lol. So my husband is Jared Ryan Hale and the baby will be Ryan Jared Hale. That way the baby is still named after Jared, but no confusion when saying their names.
Does any of this make sense? lol I think I just confused myself. Does Ryan have a good middle name.. maybe you can name your son after his middle name?

I understood now!
His middle name is Timothy but I don't wanna use some sound that Japanese people can't say.
TH and R and L are all out!! : D
Hi. Juri and Soba and Ryan: I am so happy to read that you made it to your craft show, and did so well. I love the earrings that you make.
Also love the photo of Soba and Santa Claus. Very Cute. Looks like she is having fun in all that snow. Her sister, Kiwi, is happier now that it all melted. Suzanne

I love that photo of Soba with Santa! I am becoming more and more like a mother for her!
I am glad you are enjoying my earrings!
