Recovering from the weekend…

While I need to recover from a busy and rainy weekend, Jen was finally able to find

some restoration and soul care. This spot seems to be made specifically by Mother

Nature as a place to rest, reflect and renew. I can feel that warm sun from here. She is

one of the busiest people I know, and I’m thrilled to see she had a chance to re-center.

I had a busy and fun weekend at the Midland Antique Festival with my sister in town.

Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate and it was rainy and chilly all weekend. We

had a handful of sales and while that’s great, attendance was way way down. The

organizers were wonderful and I feel badly is wasn’t what they had planned on

happening either.

We used some down time to network with some other businesses and came away with

some wholesale type opportunities and I’m realizing that’s pretty much the whole point

of the vendor tent anyway. It’s not necessarily a lot of single sales that are going to

make the difference for us. The vending tent often ends up being a really great weekend

long advertisement. We come away with something positive no matter how the sales go

at the tent.

We always come away with some new friends and a few fans and this weekend was no

different. I’m really interested to hear how it worked on his dry and stiff leather

convertible top.

It’s turning into something really fun to do. Luckily my significant other thought so too.

I’m currently scoping out fun places we can vend in the next few months through the

holidays. I know Jen is too.

The stores that carry Healthy Leather are continuing to sell out, so we’ll keep cranking

them out.

My clothes my be wet but my heart is full,

Jill
