A Day in the Loire...by Juli


My buddy 'ol pal Salina graciously invited me to be a vendor at a french inspired party at Dry Creek Winery in Healdsburg. The day was absolutely gorgeous and the atmosphere couldn't be any more French. We were posted right next the band Dgiin {self discribed as: french, folk, funk, reggae} and they were AWESOME! There were painters, french hors d'oeuvres, and a caricature artist. People came with beret's and picnic basket of crusty french bread and brie, of course to go with the wine. I sold a few baggies and there was a lot of interest shown. I am just so happy I was given this opportunity and it made a great time to bond with my other bud Ashlee. Thank you Salina!!!!

Honestly more people were interested in the giant button than anything else.
Lesson learned don't let your display be more interesting than your product.

Where DID you get that big ole button???

The big 'ol buttons came from Joann's 70% off section. i figured it was appropriate and fit the theme of my stuff. But seriously a bunch of people were like, "what's this?" "How much is that?" I seriously should just sell the big buttons.
