I Hate Shifting Gears

So, the art display/sale I was invited to attend has turned into an arts/crafts fair.  Huge difference around here between the two.
It is still being advertised as an art show, but anything hand made is being allowed.  Some artists are still coming, others are not.  

Since many jewelry crafters here call dyed howlite Turquoise, they often get the sales over my genuine Turquoise.  They often say my stuff is way overpriced to customers.

Many of the crafters feel their items are art.  Crocheted rugs from bread bags, crocheted hooks on towels, potato cozies, quilted hot pads, stamped note cards, etc.  

So, I am making some quick and easy costume jewelry to have there, in addition to cabochon jewelry and other rock related items . Most items I am making now are priced under $10.00.   

No way of knowing who I will be next to, but since I am helping organize the event hope to be located towards the front of the building by an artist.  

I will post some more of my craft quality creations, but if told not to, will not.  Understand this is a lapidary arts board.


Thanks for reading.
