Thank you to everyone who visited me at the Fancy Tiger Holiday Handmade Craft Fair this past weekend! Mike otherwise known as Mudpuppy on Etsy was kind enough to snap a photograph of me with some of my work at the show on Friday night right before the event opened to the public. Thanks Mike! I was so impressed with Jaime and Matthew, owners of Fancy Tiger, and their organizational skills and event planning. I was stressed out getting ready for the show, but if they were stressed, it sure didn’t show. There were fabulous crowds, lots of sales and best of all lots of connections made.
I even made a few trades and purchased a great screen printed T-shirt from Vital Industries for my daughter. Their screen printed vinyl toilet graphics are great too - I might have to purchase some for gifts for friends this year. One of my good friends and I always try to come up with the kitchiest gifts to exchange for Christmas every year. So far she has outdone me every year with a weather predicting stick from Maine (it actually works) and a hand sized plastic gnome that sits on a small tuft of plastic grass - you can even change out the background image placing him at the beach or even Paris.
Anyway, I digress. I submitted my application to the Colorado Potter’s Guild last week. Now I just wait to be interviewed - if they’re at all interested. I also have a tentative interview set up with the Art Student’s League this week to teach a kid’s clay workshop next summer.
I plan to relax these next few days, visit everyone’s blogs, maybe start Christmas shopping and get ready for our ski trip this next weekend.
Till later,
~Cynthia

Cynthia, what a beautiful woman you are, the photo is lovely. Glad you had a super time at the fair. Keeping my fingers crossed for all the things you applied for
hey this tag thing works GREAT!
cynthia-you go girl… chips for everyone….seriously…your table looks good… fun stuff!!!!
Thanks for the link, Cynthia. May I suggest that you try a few more of your own blogroll links in the Art Link Letter?
I know it may seem like a big footprint, but I am getting used to it at my blogs, and will be using it less often as it gets off the ground.
Good Luck!
Oh shucks, Jafabrit, I’m blushing…
Cool beans on the tag thing.
Thanks Judi - I feel so good today and relaxed compared to the past few weeks.
You’re welcome Casey - What a cool idea to do the viral link experiment. I’m going to add more links from my blogroll tomorrow am when I have more time. Once a week sounds good too.
Should I know about a viral tag? What is happening with that?
Hey congrats. I can imagine the potters are salivating to get you!!!! They should be so lucky. And you are cute and gorgeous and fun, too. Hope it went well. Love the name Mudpuppy for a potter! Too cute!
You look great! I bet that show was a lot of fun:)
Yeah! the show was awesome and your booth looked great!
Oh! and the shirt looked wonderful on your daughter! Cheers!

Glad you had fun at the show Cynthia. Best wishes on the upcoming possibilities!
I do hope you get all of what you want from you new prospects! Your table looked lovely and you are a dream boat, pretty lady. Wish I could have been there!
Check out Casey’s Blog if you’re interested in joining in the viral fun, Mary - not sure if it will work, but we’ll see. And, thank you,
Hey Diana, the show was a lot of fun - I only wish I had had a partner with me at all times so I could have walked around a little more to see all the vendors wares. I did know a couple of people from Mile High Etsy, so that was fun even if we didn’t have much time to chit chat.
I love your work, Crystal - it rocks!
Thanks Shawn, now I need to follow up while it’s all fresh in my mind.
I wish you could have been there too, Heather - it would have been fun goofing off, chatting and getting into trouble together.
I see you did some gargoyle tiles. Cool!
I am not clear on how this viral tag thing works, but thanks for putting me on yours. I will have to look into it further.
Cynthia, Sounds like a wonderful success at the Fair!
I’m sure the Potter’s Guild will love your work, it is so unique.
I guess kids just naturally love to take to your classes, how fun to have permission to meddle in clay!
Best to you, let us know about the Guild.
