November 15, 201411 yr comment_56146 Great looking set up with some very nice craftsmanship. Glad you did well and you really didn't need a BMW anyway. Report
November 15, 201411 yr comment_56147 Sweet! I didn't know you also sold kites! Mimi and I went to a local craft show today. No one there had any wooden projects other than some repurposed crafty things like window picture frames and door section wall hangings. Most of the stuff looks like it was knocked out in about half an hour so the prices weren't real high. I can't see how I could compete with pieces that take several hours each and try to stay within typical buyer price range. Report

November 17, 201411 yr comment_56173 I haven't gotten rich doing them, but I really like doing the shows. I guess I like talking to people about as much as selling the things I make. You had a very nice setup and I really like the cheese boards!! Report
