So, I'm officially in as a vendor for the Children's Trunk Show. Being my first show as an exhibitor I have tons to learn. From signage to packaging to booth presentation to visa card payment processing and so on and so on.....
Although I've done a lot of online research on what is needed to be a success at a tradeshow, the real lesson will come in November when it all happens, and as I say you learn as you go.
Getting ready for the show, I have been incredibly busy sewing my winter collection, and it will only get busier the closer to November I get (you see I'm a procrastinator and no matter how well prepared I think I might be, I know I will put off a certain amount of it till 1 am the night before the show).
At the moment the place looks like a sweatshop, there are fabric remnants everywhere. It's impossible to think the place will ever go back to looking like it did pre-production. I've got baby blue fleece stuck to my dining room chairs, lime green cotton threads have taken residence on Munchie's bedroom carpet and I'm breathing in pink fluff - just think how attractive I'm looking with pink fluff up my nostrils!
