Upcoming Excitement

Sorry about the lack of blog posts. This week has been insane!

I am very much looking forward to the Virtual Open House on Sunday! It's going to be great! And it will make up for the lack of posts lately. And there's still time to pre-register. It's no longer available after the Virtual Open House starts, and you get a great discount. (If you get in soon enough, you get a free gift, too....)

I will be available via Twitter (@BBBellezza) and AIM (BBBellezza) during the Virtual Open House, so don't be shy to ask questions if you have any.

I have been stocking up the shop, and don't worry, there's a lot more stocking up to do! Plus, some stuff will be available for purchase right here on the blog and some won't be listed until right at the open house itself!

See you Sunday! Have a great weekend until then!

Open House Reflections

This is the most recent photo of my booth. Unfortunately, although I did bring my camera, I failed to take any photos at my Open House this past Saturday. Can you believe it?

The Open House went well. I am actually pretty proud of myself for putting it together. I have had them at my home in the past, but this was much more of a production, really. More people, too.

I also am proud of my self for speaking in front of a group. Truth be told, I didn't really have that many people to speak to, but I definitely could not have even done that a year ago. Not that I am shy at all, but I am just a little scared of speaking in public. Actually, I now feel like I am over it.

I am so happy and thankful to those of you who did come out and support me. I think the longest trip winner goes to my Aunt Sue (a/k/a Aunt Suzie, lol) who came all the way from Hughesville her friends for the Open House. My mom also came from Hughesville to help me. I could not have done the Open House without her and Jim. I couldn't have physically done it or emotionally done it!

I think that this was even more valuable as a learning experience, and I am sure I will be sharing what I have learned in the future. Right now I am still recovering! LOL

And also getting ready for the B.B. Bellezza Virtual Open House coming up on July 19th, 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. Right now my Etsy Shop is still on vacation while I get my stand sorted back out again, but I plan to have it up and going by Wednesday and there will be many new things on Sunday right before and during the Virtual Open House!

Front Page!

This bracelet, "Under The Sea" was on the front page sometime last night or this morning. I missed it completely while it was on the Etsy front page.

However, the "Made in PA" Treasury it is in is still going strong.

Weezawear curated this treasury and it features lots of Handmade in PA (HiP) peeps, so please check it out.

Thanks Weezawear!
