Portland Arts Bazaar!

I just found out that I have been accepted into the Portland Arts Bazaar in Pioneer Court Square on Thanksgiving weekend!! I am now a one woman factory. My 2 assistants sleep all day and then act like they haven't been fed for 2 weeks at precisely 5 pm everyday. Sasha is especially apt at walking through anything and obliterating any sense of order. Nicolas' specialty is jumping onto a pile of tiny, tiny glitter and me not noticing until I've tracked it through the whole house...I guess it made me vacuum, though. Well, I have some definite goals to meet now. Let's see how much I can get done in a month and a half!

Screen Printing...


Well, I've learned how to silk screen this weekend so that I could add labels to my "Perfect Pullovers" on Etsy. I'm setting up a separate shop called "the Pullover" on Etsy to keep them somewhat separated from the more arty stuff, and b/c I didn't like the name Fairy Funeral being printed on them...It just didn't really make sense.



I've found that I really like the way the actual screens look after you've been printing on them- I'm going to have to find some way to use them.
