Watercolor Note Cards
One July Saturday we took a drive to check out the Farmer's Market in Great Falls, Montana. Years ago we took our two kiddos; they were probably 7 and 8 years old then. They were not excited. It just didn't sound like a fun day to them. We described it to them...farmers bring their produce to sell, along with others selling crafts and baked goods. They enjoyed themselves once we arrived and they sampled the baked goods and cotton candy.
This recent visit was for a different reason. We wanted to begin planning for our own booth. My husband has been building shelves from wood pallets; my daughter and I have been finishing them off with chalk paint and antiquing wax. We haven't made as much progress as we'd planned. The days just aren't long enough. Add to that, the fact is I'm in the art mode...I'd rather go work on watercolor paintings. While we were exploring the variety of booths with jams and stuffed olives and knit potholders...I began to get excited about my own booth offering my artwork for sale. I studied the vendors' setups and how they arranged their tables.
