It may be 90 degrees outside, but in the studio, autumn has arrived. I’ve whipped up witches, crafted batches of brooms, stockpiled witchy hats, and have made a few fall fairies.
This girl’s scouting days were behind her, so I repurposed the uniform into a woodland outfit.
Complete with posy toes.
And this delicate(?) little sprite might not be as pretty as her sibling, but she deserved a lovely, whimsical gown just as much.
They have joined the rest of the flock at Juju for the next First Friday weekend (this week!).
I bring in fairies each month. They aren’t an item that sells out, but I do have some shoppers who enjoy them, so typically 1-4 sell each time. 
That is basically my formula there. Bring in a little bit of this, a little bit of that, make a few different pieces, then choose a theme for the month and decorate with old stuff to complete that chosen idea. I fill in around the vintage pieces with hand made items and a display or two of jewelry.
My little paintings are one of the many additions that mingle with the antiques. Here, I have sorta broken my “keep to the monthly theme” rule. This narrow wall is filled with springtime decor in the center of a booth filled with autumn.
Maybe my rule is more of a guideline.
Some other creations for this month are tiny wooden books covered in old paper. Plus a few more crowns that I made extra blingy.
This formula works out okay for me. I like making a variety of things, but don’t want to rely on just one craft. If I had a booth full of say, just crowns, my sales would most likely be pretty dismal. This way I can sell a few of each set of crafty items, and that adds up to supplement my overall sales.
Next post, I’ll show you the rest of my booth. The non created pieces.
