Getting Ready for Etsy Craft Day

It’s Etsy Craft Party Day! I offered to host the Cleveland Area / Cleveland Handmade Etsy Craft party at my home and it’s now just a few short hours away.

The decorating is almost done, the kitchen and food preparations are underway, and the guests will arrive in a few hours. Here’s a few party preview photos:

We have a lot of crafting planned, such using collage materials to make wall art, cards, book marks and artist trading cards. We also prizes and samples from Etsy for being one of the top 50 parties! Therefore we’re getting some screen printers and porcelain paints to play with too.

In addition a local craft supply company, Consumer Crafts donated many tote bags and a darice mini craft vacuum for each party attendee.

Jewelry Shopping Soiree’ Brunch

This past Spring I decided to go all out and throw my own personal home show and while I’m not the girliest of girls, I went all out and threw a garden-style brunch.

Of course I had to have door prizes.

Those who brought guests were thrilled with their free gifts.

Food of course was central to the theme, and I was quite proud of the tablescape I created.

Then again the entire purpose was for guest to get to try on,

model and purchase jewelry, which they had plenty of fun doing.
