I have spent the week preparing some of my creations to send to the Tubec Holiday Artisan Market. I was contacted by one of the jury members to see if I would be interested in sending some of my wearable art vests and coats, and it ended up that I am also sending some purses, jewelry,pouches and magnet sets.

So I have been repackaging, repricing (to accommodate the 40% Gallery commision) and freshening up the items to be sent. Also did some checking for shipping rates, and it is a bit staggering what I will have to pay to send, and also send return fees for about 18 lbs. plus a whole lot of insurance.

Sure hope they have a lot of wealthy patrons of the arts down in Arizona!

I plan on sending everything by FedEx, since they are about $10 less than USPS, and they will be leaving New England on Monday if all goes as planned.

Meanwhile I have not been able to get any new items made for the studio, so once these are on their way I'm going to start a couple of elegant corsets, and Ren Faire garb, as well as a gorgeous mauve moirre' Victorian gown which I have been itching to get started on.

Also have to start thinking about what I'm taking to the Bethlehem CT Christmas Festival the first weekend of December....and that's a whole 'nother story. No rest for the wicked, as my Mother used to say frequently.
