Hello BugsandKisses - welcome to the thread! I have no origami skill at all, but I would love to learn.

This is a great group of people: inspiring, creative, generous, witty, blunt and wecoming. It's my favorite place on BFP and I'm sorry that you didn't feel that way. Today is a new day if you want to come in an try to make a fresh start!

My hands have arthritis, origami is beyond my skill level. Welcome to the site, I think I said that somewhere else

Oh! Thank You for asking! I thought I said something! lol The show was a success for my first go at it! It was 2 days and by early afternoon on the first day, I had recooped to pay for my rental and the cost of my tent! So I was pleased over that, as the space rental was not cheap! I sold about 1/3 of my pieces and got 7 commissions! Also, 2 folks asked about classes....which I had NOT considered, but now have one class scheduled for November! A one~day artist workshop about what I do! I'm VERY excited about THIS! It speaks to the teacher in me! Lots of contacts from this experience, as well....and networking galore! I will do the Spring show in May, I have decided.......because of the success of the Fall Festival. And I was also invited to participate in a smaller show in November for the Pit Bull Rescue Festival! So I'll be making Christmas goodies for this show! Candace help me set up and another friend helped me strike on Sunday night. Lots of friends stopped by.......Candace was there......ShariBerry and her daughter and Ebon and Gemmie, too! Life. Is. Good! Currently, I'm working on the piece for the Reunion Raffle and it's turning out SO well! I will post it when I complete it! |

Bugs....
I adore origami!!!!!! One Christmas, my daughter and I discussed covering the tree in white cranes, but we never got the chance to carry out that plan! I'm not sure *I* could do it! |

I can't believe it took me this long to spot this thread! How wonderful that there's so much creativity here. I just love it!
I'm curious: has anyone tried swap-bot.com for trading art? I've been there for a few years and I like it. It's got a nice little system. I've done some trading through my blog as well, but I never saw a thread in these forums for swapping art before. I'm going to subscribe to this thread to watch for your future trades and such! |
