East Atlanta Strut

So the Strut is next weekend. Its an awesome good time and my favorite craft fair of the year! It was a rough start when they told me i wasn't accepted even though I was sharing a booth with Jay. Anyway, common sense prevailed after several complaints and I was allowed to proceed. Of course this was a couple of weeks later so I didn't plan accordingly and I've fallen short of my goal on items to make. Oh well, it will be fun anyway.
So, I have decided there are too many sewing crafts and that may be why I was rejected. I needed a new item to set me apart. Sure, no one makes quilts at these things but then again, no one buys the quilts either. They'll pay 100 bucks for a painting that took a day to make but a quilt that too a lot of time and effort for 100? No way they say. So, my new item is slightly mass produced. I learned to make molds! I asked my friend to show me how and she's awesome so I knew she would be a great teacher. Now, how much should I sell these magnets for? I'm thinking 5 bucks for bugs, 7 for cows and 8 for the chickens. Discuss.

Lets talk cows!

Cow photo shoots are hilarious to watch. We stumbled upon this great scene and I had to watch. They were struggling with a stubborn unhappy cow trying to get it to stand in exactly the right spot. They would offer it snacks and petting and then try to lift one hoof into place and then the other. Then the cow would shift and they would have to start again. They pushed and prodded and poked and tugged. Good times! Also, please notice the tiny goat in the first picture. Or maybe its a tiny lamb. Or sheep. I dunno but it was just hanging out on a leash curled up near its kennel.
