Today I traveled up to Holyoke, MA to peddle my wares at the first annual Kitschy and Crafty Craft Fair and Flea Market, hosted by some rad ladies who call themselves The Good, the Bad, and the Crafty. It was a punk/rockabilly/horror type of event, attended by tattooed, mohawked, and generally hip crafty people. There was lots of great stuff there. Jewelry, knit stuff, records, headbands that make you have a huge cupcake on your head.
But where were all the shoppers?
Eatin' burgers and drinkin' beer?
Who knows. It was a quiet day. The afternoon was broken up by a catastrophic burst pipe, right over somebody's booth- I think it was one of the organizers- and a panicked rush to get stuff out of the way, and trash barrels under the gallons and gallons of water that gushed from the ceiling. I saw the whole thing happen, and it was amazing (although very unfortunate for those who happen to be under it at the time).
Well, as always, I met lots of great folks that I hope to see again. I also scored a deck of Elvis playing cards for a mere dollar, which was definitely the deal of the day!

MY STUFF
I just logged in to my Etsy Shop for the first time in a long time to delete a few items I've recently sold, and it occurred to me that I'm now left with three listings. Three.
Threeve, if you will.
Its not because I don't have stuff. I have stuff. I just haven't put the time or energy into listing any of it on Etsy. Honestly, its time consuming. My work needs to be photographed. The photos need to be edited. The photos need to be uploaded. I need to write descriptions, list the materials used, and add tags. Oh, and I have to pay a fee for each listing.
So, if anyone is wondering why SuperLula's Etsy is so bare, thats why! I'm not abandoning it, just currently pursuing other avenues of getting my work out there.
I'm going to throw some photos into this post to give an idea of what I have, and if there is any interest, please contact me at super_lula@yahoo.com
Coming soon: photos of all the NEW and EXCITING pieces that I made just recently... the vegan stuff, the Hello Kitty, the cupcakes, popsicles, sushi, and martinis.... woot!
