Wow, what a fun and quick trip to Nashville this past weekend to do a craft show, Making Merry in Berry Hill. Jamie and I arrived around 8 am Saturday morning and got busy unloading and setting up.
Jamie had some vintage Christmas items. I heard her say a couple of time to young people as they passed by: “Celebrate Christmas like your Grandma”. That is because everyone would say….”ohhhhhhh my grandma had one of these”. 
Sold: Large artwork chalkboard, headboard (joy) chalkboard, {heart} chalkboard, blue tall chalkboard, ammo box coffee table.
Close-up sold: bedpost chalkboard, large chalkboard on the left.
Sold: Black mirror
sold: chalkboard printable, and a couple of the small rustic chalkboards
Sold: shutters, black wooden “bowl”.
sold: whole heart, gray mirror, top stool. Not sold, 4×4 pedestal in front.
sold: Mom’s Bar & Grill, You are My Sunshine, Be Happy, What IF
Sold: goodnight moon
Sold: Coffee Bar
Not sold, ANY of the shutter magazine holders. I’ve always sold them at Glendale. Also not sold, not a single rustic crate. 
I think they are so cute!
It was a cool day to start off, well, really more like cold. … 37. It warmed to about 50 with a little sunshine later in the day. It was a good crowd, but nothing like the amount of people that come out to Glendale, but surprisingly, I did about the same as I do at Glendale. It was a lot of fun to see Jamie and Andy, and setting up with Jamie was a real treat. I have no idea why I didn’t take any pictures of her vintage Christmas booth.
I ended up bringing home 3 stools, small chicken wire cabinet, both wooden pedestals, the faux garden gate, several chalkboards, both windows, all the rustic crates, and all the shutters.
I’ll store some, donate some, and list some on Craig’s List to make room for more projects!

November 13, 2013 at 7:59 amI still cannot believe that your little rustic crates do not sell. Just curious…do you “stage” them at all? Mine were a little different, but I did quite well with mine last year (didn’t do any sales this year) 🙁 Even if you didn’t do arrangements…maybe just some pine cones or greenery with a candle, a bunch of ornaments….something simple! I think that sometimes people just need a few ideas, THEN they can come up with some on their own.
I LOVE your handle boxes!

November 11, 2013 at 9:43 pmLooks like fun, Gail! It ended up being too windy for us to venture out (the youngest is getting over croup). Wish I could have seen you!

November 11, 2013 at 1:50 pmAre you not able to sell some of this in your etsy?
I bet if you ran a few of them…the chalkboards or crates…they’d sell don’t you think?
It looks like you did pretty well with this sell. I’m glad you were able to go and so glad you got to see Jamie and Andy.
I have a feeling Jamie wouldn’t let you do this show alone anyway. 😉 She is looking our for her Momma!

Glad it went well otherwise and was a nice day with Jamie!
REST now, my friend–

November 11, 2013 at 9:53 amLooks like it was a great day, and so neat you got to go with Jamie! I would have been drooling at your booth if I had been there! I still think people are crazy for not buying the rustic crates!

November 11, 2013 at 9:25 amSounds like a successful weekend to me! Your can never really predict what will be popular from one sale to the next, but that’s part of the fun. So glad you got to team up with Jamie!

November 11, 2013 at 7:09 amI love all the items you took and I’m amazed at the items you didn’t sell…those would have been the things I would have been drawn to. I’m glad it was successful and you had a good time with Jamie!
