I was way too tired yesterday to post anything. We left for the Witches Market at 10am and didn’t get home until 10 pm. It was a long day. Before the show began, they asked all vendors to a “circle” where someone played music and sang a blessing over the event. There were 150+ people, so it was a big circle.

The day was warm, and my booth sat just inside one of the building doorways. There was a strong wind, which became both a blessing and a curse. It helped cool things down, but it also blew my stuff over. Sadly, a few of my spirit dolls broke after falling off the table. I was able to fix one on site, and another I can fix later. The third was one a woman had wanted earlier and came back for. She decided she still wanted it, even with the broken leg. Amazing.

The foot traffic was crazy — a constant stream from opening to close. It made for great people viewing, and the crowd did not disappoint there.

I was sore and tired even today, but I sat in the hot tub for a bit before my mom and sister woke up this morning. We were able to go to breakfast and stop by a couple stores before they left to go home.

I’m super thankful for my fam helping me all day yesterday, for the friends who stopped by to say hello (and take home party skeletons and crows!), for making more than I spent, for a relaxing day today, and for getting the remnants of the crafting out of the garage so we could park in there again.
