On man it was just the best!!! We had a great time!
We sold lots of turtles and just had a blast. It was wonderful and crowded and just even better than I imagined. People were so excited about all the beautiful jewelry and my booth was a big hit too! We met so many beach glass lovers from all over the country and even the world.
I made a huge show piece turtle with all kinds of beach finds. It got lots of attention and was sold right away, but we got to keep it for display all day Saturday. Everyone loved my little turtles too and so we very, very busy with customers, which is good thing, but I didn’t have time to enjoy the Festival lectures or shop at all. My friends loved the lectures and all showed me what they bought.
All the artisans were so nice and their “stuff” was just fabulous!!! I just couldn’t get enough time to see everything! I was like a kid in a “candy store” and just so pumped up checking out all the booths. I tried to get everyone’s business card and checkout where their beach and sea glass was from. It was all just so cool! The glass from Santa Cruz and the stuff from England with all the colors was just super! I just loved it all.
I was just the most amazing experience!
It was GREAT!!!!!!! Thank you family and friends!

Thanks Doreen. We all enjoyed everyone and all the wonderful comments. Sorry I’m so short on turtles on the web site right now. I’m getting reorganized and now have them in a few new galleries. This weekend I’m taking some to Ashtbula, OH. Would you mind if I label the photo with you and Zekers? I could just add your first name. Did you get to check out the slideshow at http://www.seaglassjournal.com, that Gary did? My daughter Jillby and Zekers sister Sammie are photo no. 57! So Cute! The Festival was such fun!
My sister and I really enjoyed your turtles and your booth.
