Was it worth it??? {Update on items for sale}



{UPDATE: several of you have contacted me wanting to purchase items , but some 
of you do not have your email linked up to your blog so there is no way for me to
 contact you. Please link your email  up to your blog or email me directly...the link is
 on my profile page here on my blog. I feel bad when I can't get ahold of you}

I kinda felt like I was getting ready for a wedding...you know...a big production.

Sewing, gluing, painting, creating, glittering, printing, cutting,scrunching, packaging...
for days weeks on end and then

POOF...

It is  over with...done...fanito!

I am one tired lady and I have decided that once a year is about all of this that I can handle. ha!
{Kudos to you who do this every week or even more...my hats off to you!!}


I got many, many compliments on how nice my treasures were and some people even
purchased an item or two.


But when you get right down to it...did I sell very much??


I sold a few of the burlap bags and several stockings
{but still have some left}

 
...a few candles and ornies


 one of these Eiffel towers sold


the star boxes didn't sell...two cloches did


I think I sold maybe three sets of candles at $ 6.00 a set...all my number tags went except one set.


I didn't sell any of the old tart tin glitter ornies, {I think they were $6 each}
 but I did sell some of the music ornies with angels on.


All three paper trees sold


a few nests sold 


some music sheet angel wings sold, the beautiful white script ones didn't 


Sold one bottle , none of the cabinet cards, none of the scrabble tile sayings etc.

...so the million dollar question is:

was it worth it???


Well...I am not sure.  If I wouldn't have had two
ladies that purchased a lot from me, then I would 
say it was iffy at best. Do I want to do it again
next year?   Time will tell. I suppose there is something
to be said for hanging in there year after year and
hoping my  "style"  grows on people.  Also, am I pricing
too cheap? I know I am not pricing too expensive. 

Lots of questions, but all in all it was still a 

great day. I met many wonderful people and chatted
up a storm with them! ha! Here's to small town living!!

{Note: If you see anything you want to purchase give me a 

shout out as I just may have it left}
