Paperific Nov 2009

It's all done and dusted for another year.  Hooray!  I can't say I'll miss the heat and stuffiness, and that's despite the Little Bits stand being right at the door with an occasional breeze hitting us.

Once again, it was unbelievably busy on Friday, busy again on Saturday, and a little quieter on Sunday. I got to see a huge number of friends, which is a little bittersweet because although it's so wonderful to see them, I can't spend a lot of time with them because of all the customers to serve.  I hope my friends understand (I'm sure they do - they really are wonderful!). The Little Bits team is so much fun to work with - non-stop laughter and fun.  Here's the stand during the Sunday peak:

These little beauties have me a little excited:

Yeah - Copic Ciao markers.  We had them on special 10 for $50, and they went like hot cakes.  This photo was probably taken on Friday before we opened LOL.

A big highlight for me was having Twiddleybitz there.  I recently joined the design team, so it was great to see how well Nicole and Andrew run a stand and display the wonderful pieces completed by the DT.  I'm really excited to be teaching a trade class for Twiddleybitz tomorrow night, and it will be nice to catch up with some of the traders at Paperific for a round up of the weekend.

Here's the DT sample wall at the stand:

The artwork was rotated throughout the show, so the display was different every time I went back to look at it. Apologies for the lighting in the photos - it was hard to get a good shot with my photography skills combined with the high wattage yellow lights at the venue.

Here's Nic at the make and take table.  You can just see a hint of the beautiful easel Beck decorated to Nic's right:

I've posted a few more photos at the Twiddleybitz ning site - pop on over and check them out.
