Work Space

Hey all!

It's hard to believe that Thanksgiving is only 5 days away. Oh...how the list of to dos is growing by the minute. The orders are pouring in for Christmas orders and Emma's is going to be at two events in the River Valley the first weekend in December as well as an event put on my good Friend Tova Millet, owner of Cut Loose Hair Salon in Norway.

So here is the schedule:
  • Vendor Fair December 3rd 5-8pm @Black Mountain of Maine, Rumford
  • Christmas in the Valley Fair December 4th 9-2 @Mountain Valley High School, Rumford
  • Cuttin' Loose for the Holidays 9-2 December 4th @Tuscany Hall, South Paris

    Shops that you can find Emma's Pretties in:
  • Cut Loose 8 Fair Street, Norway
  • The Calico Patch 174 Broadway, Farmington
  • Divine Treasures 625 Bridgton Road, Westbrook

    It doesn't seem like things are more than me having fun at this until I write it all down like it is above! Holy cow...what an accomplishment in one year's time! Thank you to all of my friends and family for supporting me through this journey. Happy Holidays to all of you!
So this could be my only post until after the holidays are over...I'll be locked up in my room until it's over, but I'm thinking that I will enjoy every last moment of it.

Take care my friends...may Santa grant all your wishes.
Sandy

Give credit where credit is due!

I have to give a shout out to my favorite vendors...Auntie's Beads in Texas!

Kelly McCoy is great to bounce ideas off and when beaders have thoughts, ideas and suggestions they are very open and accommodating...they can be found at http://www.auntiesbeads.com/

I recently put an entry in a contest that was in motion...what an experience that was and despite the glitch with the voting..Emma's Pretties came in 3rd! It was so much fun and look forward to the next one that they have.

Here is a pic of what 3rd place looks like...

Thank you to all of Emma's fans that voted...next time we'll get 'em!

Just Checking in...again...

Holy cow it's November and I haven't created a post since April. What have I been up to?

Well the list is pretty long...
  • I am a part of the University of Maine Cooperative Extension's Maine Harvest for Hunger, as the agency I work for is a partner, and that took a huge portion of my summer.
  • My husband and I got married in August and for all that have planned a wedding you know that it involves tons of details that need to be coordinated. Thank you to my very supportive family and friends...you rock!
  • I have been very busy with Emma's Pretties as of late...everyone is gearing up for the holidays. I participated in a local school craft fair Halloween weekend with great success!
  • There was a super home show last weekend at the home of one of my favorite hostesses! Thank you Kristen and Tina Simoneau
  • I am now gearing up for 3 events at the end of the month...Jam Night at Black Mountain of Maine from 5-8 December 3rd...Christmas in the Valley Craft Fair at Mountain Valley High School from 9-2 December 4th...Cuttin' Loose for the Holidays at Tuscany Hall 9-2 December 4th
  • I finished my first ever newsletter complete with a great deal for all website purchases and great incentives for December hostesses! Call to book one today! 357.7663
