The result of lots of work.

Edit: Saturday 4pm
Good news and bad news.  The bad news is the festival I was supposed to do this weekend did not work out.  The good news is that I can now enjoy the long weekend instead!  Hope you're all having a great long weekend. See you Tuesday. 

I've been working double-time these past 2 weeks.  Double time means: every free moment when I'm not asleep or taking care of the preschooler, which means probably a total of about 10 hours a day during the week and 12 hours a day on the weekends.  Wait, how many hours does that equal...?

...doing the math....

Wow, that's like 74 hours a week for the past 2 weeks! Holy shmakerel, that's a lot.   Why so much work, you ask?  This weekend marks my first artist market of the season.  My first fall festival of about eight that I'll be doing between now and Christmas.

This afternoon I laid out all my jewelry on the dining room table so I could take inventory of what's coming with me tomorrow.

Behold the result of my labors. 

Festival Inventory: Lucky Charms and Little Charms
 Lucky Charm series.
