It's Fall....Yippee!

I love Fall and all that comes with it...the leaves are turning, cooler temperatures, football, sweatshirts and jeans. I could go on. When I was much younger, I would get into the whole spirit of Fall when I saw the pumpkins appearing and Halloween decor popping up around the neighborhood. I hope I can bring that same feeling of excitement to my kids during this time of year. We plan to do some apple and pumpkin picking this year with the kids at Lynd's Fruit Farm and maybe spend a day at Leed's Farm in Ostrander. We are creating traditions that will hopefully carry on.

With Fall comes lots of events for me as well. Here is where I will be vending in October:
Saturday, October 3: St. Joan of Arc in Powell, OH
Sunday, October 4: North Market Artisan Sundays
Saturday, October 10: Worthington Fall Festival
Saturday, October 17: Star Bazaar, Slate Hill Elementary, Worthington, OH
Sunday, October 18: North Market Artisan Sundays
Saturday, October 24: Grandview Hop

Stop by the Worthington event, October 10 and just smell that Kettle Corn! It will put you into that fall state of mind :)

Thanks for reading!

Yippee for school starting!

Summer has been great but I am ready for the school year to start. I am the kind of person that likes structure to my day and I am not THAT disciplined in the summer to create it for myself. So....school is right around the corner and with it brings schedules and structure (happy sigh).

The cooler weather will allow me to wear sweatshirts and jeans again (yay!). This is my wardrobe most days and I am ok with that.

Bye to the pool until next year! Bye to endless applications of sunscreen. Bye to the darn flies that have been circling on my porch all summer long - yuck!!

Welcome to a renewed interest in creating fall and winter items with browns and tans and great fall colors. I plan on creating some new bags and totes and get those posted to my site. I always like to get a new bag when the season changes...especially Fall because it's like I am back in school and get to pick out a new backpack or book bag. So check back in a few weeks to see some great new bags I have in the works!

Thanks for reading!

Baby Gee's - First Blog

Ok - here goes... My first blog.

So many craft shows, so little time! I have attended quite a few shows as of late...some good, some bad - but one thing that is constant at these shows is the camaraderie of many of the vendors. We all are there early, setting up our booths, chatting, buying (or trading - which I love) from each other, discusing what shows are coming up and which are the best to be in, complaining about "where are the customers?" when it's slow. It's a true feeling of community amongst us.

It is great to meet all the other talented crafters out there and get re-energized about your own business at the same time. There are so many fall & holiday craft shows that are in and around the Columbus, OH area. I think it's great that churches, schools and communities embrace small business owners and organize events such as these. It's a great outlet for people to display some of their creativity and make some money to boot.

My upcoming events that I am really looking forward to participating in are:
  • Saturday, October 27, 2007 Slate Hill Elementary Star Bazaar - 7625 Alta View Blvd, Worthington, OH 43085

  • Saturday, December 1, 2007 Huber Ridge Elementary - 5757 Buenos Aires Blvd., Westerville, Ohio 43081

I am still looking for some good November events so if anyone knows of any, I would love to hear about them. Email me at michelle@babygees.com

Thank you to all the people who attend these type of events and support your local communities!

Happy Shopping!
