It’s less than 2 weeks until the Cowtown Indie Bazaar in Fort Worth, and I’m pumped. This is going to be a great show, sponsored by Etsy Fort Worth, a group of local Etsy artisans of which I am a member. I really enjoy doing shows that only allow handmade artisans, and I always have a hard time not spending all of my earnings.
I decided to donate mini soaps to the goody bags for this event, and the Etsy Fort Worth blog has a great sneak peek into the bags I thought I would share. The bags are FREE to the first 50 people to show up, and from what I hear they are going to be stuffed to the brim. Free goodies and samples practically exploding out the top. If I qualified for a free bag (I don’t since I’m a vendor), I would most definitely be there at 9 when the doors open to snag one of these babies.

The Cowtown Indie Bazaar will be held Saturday, September 4 from 9am – 6pm at the Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth, Texas. Admission to the event is free.
So today I got a good taste of the power of the web, and it’s most popular handmade marketplace, Etsy. This week I opened an Etsy store, and this morning I was briefly featured on the homepage. I received a huge warm welcome from fellow shop owners and received several wholesale inquiries – a first for me! It was quite exciting for my ‘lil ‘ol soap shop.
I was also featured on 2 blogs today – CraftGossip and Lilac and Grey.
Just had to toot my own horn a little…turns out all this time I’ve been spending cruising the web may be actually beneficial. Now, time for a glass of wine.
