I had to cancel my booth at the craft fair! And I’m OK with that, well sorta. I had to come to the realization that I just can’t do it all.
I did manage to make a few items for the craft fair which mostly consist of a few key fobs and some cold packs “boo boo bags.” I don’t normally sell these items in my etsy shop, but they are fun to make and are good sellers at craft fairs. So to make me feel better about not being able to do it all, I am going to do a giveaway for all of you and I’m going to be donating 100% of the proceeds from the key fobs and cold packs that are in my etsy shop to Operation Shower. Please go check them out. I’m selling the key fobs for $6 and the baby cold packs for $8 a pair.
One goal I have set for myself for the upcoming year is to raise the $250 it takes to throw one baby shower through Operation Shower. Wanna help out too? You can either purchase an item listed in my etsy shop as (100% of the proceeds donated to Operation Shower) or donate directly to Operation Shower.
And now here is my way for GIVING THANKS to all of you, my readers.
I am giving away this little baby play blanket to one lucky winner. To enter, all you have to do is leave me a comment. Make sure you leave your email address if it is not linked through blogger.

My little sweetie would LOVE that blanket! I hope I win! I LOVE your blog. Thanks for sharing all of your great/fun ideas. Love them!
Chris says
Those products turned out great! I can see why they would sell well at a craft fair. And, definitely, do not feel bad about cancelling your booth. You need to look out for #1, first and foremost — and that's YOU!

What a great thing you are doing Christina! The blanket is adorable! Count me in on this great giveaway!
Maybe you can help me come up with an idea to help raise money for a local family trying to adopt two children from China. I want to help them but am unsure how to go about it. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I, for one, don't know how you do it anyway!!! It is so hard to admit when we can't do it all!! Hope you get to have lots of booths next year! I know I am hoping to double my craft fair participation next year — not a huge goal, since I only did one this year 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving!
