My First street sale of 2016

Congrats on the sale. I’m heading to my second carving show of the year next month. Hope to do as well.

Man that was great, Jim. I did an indoor sale today and did very little..jut made my booth fee.

Cheers, Jim

That’s really great Jim. I barely made my booth rent last week. If I wasn’t making specialty shelving for other vendors it would have been a bust. Summer in Texas is a hard time for outside markets. I just cut a deal today with another vendor to put my things in her booth and she will sell for me. I only pay half the booth rent, do my own setup and breakdown. I am looking forward to seeing how this deal works out as it gives me more shop time and a whole lot less down time.
