Lucketts, Day One

This year, Lucketts Spring Market is fabulous as always.  The vendors have all brought great stuff.  The aisles were crowded with enthusiastic shoppers, and very few folks appear to be leaving the show empty handed. 

Sales in my booth were steady all day, with large pieces and small items selling equally well.  (The credit card ap on my iPhone has worked flawlessly.)  The weather was clear and warm ... bright blue sky, light breezes, and temps topping out at about 80 degrees.  I applied a coat of sunblock to my exposed parts every so often, and I offered it to customers and other dealers who looked like they needed it.  (It was definitely a "sunburn before you know it" type of day.)

I was on my feet nearly all day, and by the end of Day One, I felt a lot like this vase of flowers that I saw at a fellow dealer's booth ... tired and wilted.



The Husband is working the booth with me today, so I will have an opportunity to get out of the booth and really do some shopping ... instead of yesterday's quick look at the booths as I went to and from the ladies room or to grab a bite to eat (crabcake sandwich ... yum!)

One more day!

Off to Lucketts I Go!

The Husband and I spent all of yesterday afternoon setting up my booth at the Lucketts Spring Market.  We loaded up the truck and trailer on Thursday, piling in everything I had that would fit.  I never in a million years believed that I could cram all of that stuff into a 10 x 10 space (with a bit of overflow) ... but we did!

This is only a small fraction of it.  (Took this photo with my new iPhone!)


I'm sharing a double booth with Deborah (Confessions of a Craigslist Junkie), and our booth is right beside Susan (Uniquely Yours or Mine), so it almost feels as if I'll be hanging out with friends for the weekend.  All of us are first time Lucketts vendors, so we can learn the ropes together.

If you are planning to come to Lucketts this weekend to shop the Spring Market, be sure to stop by.

I have to hush now, so I can finish getting ready and get out of here.

See you in Lucketts!
