festivus!

Hello Beautiful Person! I just wanted to send out a last minute reminder about shipping. My last day for shipping anything in 2010 via Priority Mail within the U.S. is Monday, December 20. The sweet gal at the post office yesterday said that overseas packages pretty much need to travel by express mail if you want it by Christmas, so please contact me if you see something in my Etsy site that needs to go across the pond and we can make it happen! Any custom orders will be discussed and scheduled for January!

There are still plenty of items in my Etsy shops if you missed me at the One of a Kind Show or Crafty Wonderland! Here's a little taste of what's happening in the Bunny With a Toolbelt Etsy shop!


And don't forget--all brooches from my recent show The Beauty of Life are available in my other Etsy shop! Click here and ye will magically transported into the parallel universe of my oeuvre.



Thanks everyone for a magical year! I am really happy with all I accomplished and I couldn't do it without your support! I have big plans for 2011 so I'll touch base sometime next year to let you know what's happening.

Be safe and have a happy new year!

Hilary

One of a Kind Show Chicago


I'm halfway through the One of a Kind Show in Chicago. It's great being in the special Etsy section featuring 30 other Etsians plus a DIY area--a really nice group of talented people, plus the area is a lot more spacious than most of the Merchandise Mart allotments, since our booths are half the depth as a normal booth and without side partitions. My corner booth (#2015) is decked out with a mini winter wonderland. Come say hi if you're in the Chicago area! (Here's my picketing Rabbi who is up on the local politics.) weekend hours: Saturday, December 4 10 am – 7 pm and Sunday, December 5 10 am – 5 pm.

Thursday

Hellooooooooo Chicago!


I haven't quite finished the booth setup yet, but promise to take pictures. The plan: I'm creating an eight foot long winter wonderland scene, complete with leafy trees, reindeer, snow people, penguins galore, picketing Santas and Rabbis, and other martini-imbibing beasts.


Are you nearby? Will you come say hi? I am in booth 8-2015 and can't wait to meet some of my old and new customers! Show starts at noon today and runs through Sunday afternoon. See you there! Click here for more info. I'm holding court in the Etsy Pavillion where they have some excellent props to fancy up their section like a white faux polar bear rug, a freestanding cardboard fireplace, etc. They also will have all kinds of fun crafty things to do and every purchase you make at one of the 30 booths in this section gives you a chance to win a gift certificate and other amazing raffle prizes!
