Chico Fair Was a Happy & Successful Event

 

The Chico fair, the Bizzare Bazaar, on the first weekend in December was a very enjoyable experience for us. We found homes for a lot of our mixed metal jewels, reconnected with many friends and customers from our 45+ years of selling our work at fairs in the Chico area and were happy to realize we still remember how to do fairs after not doing one for two years. We were happy with the new location at the fairgrounds in Chico, it let us have a larger space that made it easier to set up our usual display. The first year we did the Bizarre Bazaar in the Women's Center in Chico we had to fit into a 5 x 5 foot space which was an extreme challenge for us. Luckily we did very well though and continued to participate in the fair.

We're not sure when our next fair will be. The spring show we used to do in Los Altos has moved to August. We hope to find another spring fair to do but haven't at this point. We may try the August Los Altos fair and we hope to do the Bizarre Bazaar in Chico in December of next year and probably the Sacramento Arts Festival in November. It's been quite a while since we have tried a new fair but we may try a couple this spring and summer to find one that works for us. 

Carlie is enjoying her life of retirement and may not be making many jewels any more. I will miss her work, it was often an inspiration for me and led me in interesting directions. I enjoyed making the collaborative pieces that we worked on together also. Because much of the work she did was in the form of earrings, I am starting to work on a lot more earring designs to make sure we have a good selection of them and am enjoying that developing  process very much. 

We are happy with how sales have gone through our online store on Eventeny and will continue to add new jewels to our page as we finish them. Please check it out at
