I decided to set up a craft table at our school's Spring Festival this weekend. This was a fun way to display my items, make a little bit of money and support Oak Grove. This also meant I didn't have spend my day inside the confides of the smoldering gym and watch kids race through the bounce house. :-). The rain held off, the kids were thrilled to run rampant in their own school building and the PTA was able to raise funds for the upcoming year.
I received some great tips from a fellow teacher who has been creating for about 5 years now. She was very encouraging and gave me some new ideas that I am thinking about creating in the upcoming weeks. I am hoping to get even more involved (maybe do some actual shows) after we move up to Ithaca, NY. If nothing else, this process of learning and making has given me an outlet to make it through the winter with hibernating!
