Tales of a Magpie: Glitterfest and Live from San Gabriel Bead Company

I suppose you have been waiting to hear how the Glitterfest went. Very well, indeed! It was a great show and so much fun. The women at Whimzy do a fantastic job organizing this show and making everything so beautiful. I did very well at the show and want to thank everyone that stopped by my table to say hello!

Here is a photo of my table:

I had more finished work for sale at this show rather than kits. I always enjoy displaying pieces in this case:

I had some earrings for sale, too and had great fun making the cards they were displayed on:

Here is the choker and some other finished pieces:

I did one soldered piece called Cinderella's Ball Gown:

This piece sold rather quickly. Thankfully I do have a better photo on the other camera.

I had friends at the show, too and they happened to be right around me. Here is Crystal Basica's table:

And Tara Wilson (Lulu Max):

And of course, the lovely Robin Dudley-Howes was there:

It really was a beautiful show. Since I was in it, I didn't get much time to walk around and see all the wonderful things for sale. But I did manage to buy a few things, a necklace from Tara and some doll parts. I seem to really be into body parts lately.

But now for the second part of the title of this post. Yes, I am posting live from the San Gabriel Bead Company (between customers so I keep losing my train of thought). I am having a trunk show here today and tomorrow, selling kits and finished pieces.
