First Sale Day

Well, the good news is that it didn't rain and we had customers (mostly new faces), but the spring buying fever just wasn't in the air. I had customers stop who were just driving by and a few who had picked up a flyer at Copper Eagle Antique store or from the Brocton show and even one from Facebook(my mom posted that -thanks Mom). My husband was so nice and helpful yesterday, even getting the hayrack and sawhorses (for parking) set up before church. The two vendors each sold some items and I had my ususual helpers (my mom and dad) and Ella Mae(my grandma) and her sister- Aunt Ann came and visited (they just set the mood with their stories). The first sale is always the hardest- so much to clean and price (where do the tags disappear to?) and figure out where everything should go. It's a lot to do mostly by myself- don't get me wrong- I really enjoy it- it just helps when I feel the customers like what they see. I'm going to keep working on it- improving with the input of my friends and family. Hopefully, the next sale will be more successful in many ways!
