Peach Festival at Pere Marquette Lodge, Grafton IL

Wow what a great day! This was the second Peach Festival that I displayed my handmade wares for sale at Pere Marquette Lodge. Twice if not many more people were in attendance, and even though the vendors were told this event started at 10am people were walking around a 1/2 hour early. My cork boards and cork chalk boards were a hit, as well as the pin cushions with bags (thread catchers). A few wine charms, scrabble tile pendants, and 2 out of 3 wine bottle trays with a bonus cork handle canape knife sold as well. And I was able to snag 6 huge peaches from the local farmer before he ran out. So here's to a good day *raising my full glass of peachy wine* and a good night's sleep.

For those that have looked at my Etsy shop, it is on Vacation mode as I organize things on the home front. Hopefully I will have the shop back open, as well as my Artfire shop, by the beginning of Autumn. ;)
