well promoted

creative community, shop | Thursday, October 1st, 2009

Wow. When i met Sue Lavitt at an event 2 Springs ago she flattered me with compliments and urged me to participate in Vancouver’s first One of A Kind events. She followed up and followed through, answered questions and concerns and even when i decided not to do the 2008 show she still followed up for this year’s show and here i am…literally plastered all over the city. i have to say that i have been very well promoted for this event.

The buses and billboards have certainly kicked my butt in gear to have ample stock for the event and while i think i could still do with more there’s only so much a gal can make, all the while still enjoying the process. So far so good. i’m overwhelmed, yes, but production is steady and good. i’ve a gaggle of gals and riches of crowns amongst other play things, gifts and accessories. Previews to come soon i hope.

  6. My daughter saw the bus the other day and exclaimed “Hey Mom, my Yulenka doll is on the side of the bus!” She thought that was pretty cool. Hope it goes GREAT for you!

  13. So exciting!

    My 4-year-old just saw the photo of the child in the crown and yelled, “I have one of those!” So I think that even she is excited on your behalf. Good luck with all your preparations. :)

  14. I would be literally freaking out…luckily you are much more organized, efficient, professional, awesome and talented than I’ll ever be. Good luck and we send you very good vibes from the Kootenays :-)

  16. Unfortunately I’m going to be out of town for this but you must tell me how it goes. I’ll be rooting for you (not like you’ll need it). ; )

  18. I’m so excited for you! I can’t wait to see your photos of the event…if you’re not swamped in customers that is! I am wishing that I live in Vancouver now. The craft scene in Montreal is so lame in comparison!
