Baby Oopies

I helped out a friend at the Baby Fair this past weekend, and it was a lot of fun! I wore Aaliyah on my chest for pretty much the entire day, both Saturday and Sunday. I've never worn her for so many consecutive hours before, and was only slightly surprised that my back and shoulders didn't hurt at all My feet however, were burning from standing most of the time.

Being at the Fair, or rather, being part of an exhibition at the Fair, gave me some really good insight for what to expect for next year. I'm planning on having my own booth next year, and I've already started on the preparations. I got all kinds of ideas from looking around at other booths as well. Turning a candle holder into a fancy hat rack, for example I like the idea of having someone else there, too. I think I'll ask my sister for help. She's a business woman, so will have some experience in bringing people to my booth.

My friend running the booth, is a professional phtographer. There were two or three other photographers, but none could compare with my friend's skill. She was the only one there that was actually part of a professional organization, won an award, and had recognition. Her website is here, and I encourage all to visit. Her work is amazing! We're currently scheming together to put together some specials over the winter. I'm super excited about it!
