With the daily, political chaos and suddenly raising unemployment rate in Washington, DC, both Steve and I were really worried about this year's Smithsonian Craft Show. Would we break even? Would we lose money? How would we maintain positive energy from Wednesday night's gala through closing time at 4:00 PM on Sunday? Honestly, we were nervous!

It turned out that none of our fears were warranted. In fact, this year's Smithsonian Craft Show was my booth's best experience! The crowd was steady. Sales were good. We brought home lots fewer artworks than we expected. Plus, Booth 400 looked GREAT. More photos below!
It is always such an honor to be among the 120 selected fine crafts artists at this show. Thank you to everyone who came, who bought, and who talked to me!
