I had my first exhibition at a zakka shop in a local area on the last Saturday. There were 5 artists/creaters including myself from Shonan area. I brought my Hawaiian bags just like the first craft fair. It was a very hot day and we had less customers during the daytime. I guess nobody wanted to take a risk to dry up in the heat! But we had a lot of customers in the evening just before the fireworks started. I was there from 11 AM to 9:30 PM. What a long day it was! I got a cold and now I'm sick in bed right now. Gee, I'll be better soon! I just wanted to tell my friends that it was over. The result? I didn't make much money, but it was so great that I met new creaters in the local area. They say they'll invite me again quite soon for another exhibition. I'll think about how to improve to earn more $$$! :D

you can´t improve the weather... think in japan it´s like in germany... when it´s too hot people don´t go out.
sure you´ll make more money in autumn, when people don´t sweat that much anymore ;)
the pic looks lovely, like in a magazine ^^
Hi Kumi!
the exhibition seemed great fun!
Get better soon, Kumi!
Hope you feel better!
Good that you went on another craftfair/exhibition. Sometimes the payoff doesn't come in $$ (or not immediately) but like you said, in new crafty contacts. Keep it up!
Wow, good for you! I hope you feel better soon!
Hi Katrin.
We had a typhoon yesterday, and it kept raining all day so hard. Now it's gone and the hot weather is back!
Money is very important, but I think relationship or communication network with creators and zakka shops are more important. So let's not worry about $$$ for the time being, I decided! He he he!
Wow, Laurence!
Glad to have you here! I have to write you back, I know!! Sorry for my bad writing...
Hi P.
Thanks, honey.
I'm not well yet.
It takes some time, eh?
Hi Deborah.
Thanks for cheering me up!
You're so sweet!
Back in Europe now?
Hi Gina.
Thanks, my dear.
I do hope I get well sooner!
I have been sick since the last Sunday Market (2 weeks ago), guess this is the result of too tire (because we need to prepare a lot of items before the day). That's why now I need to plan ahead for the next Sunday Market (27th Aug).
Take care of yourself and don't overwork ya! :)
Hi 点点滴滴.
Hope you're feeling better sooner!
Don't work too hard as it's so hot outside!
