Silk Creations by Janey Show Set Up is a lot harder than you think.....

As an artist, one spends a lot of time trying to share his or her passion with the world.  One of the best ways in this day and age is to participate in shows.  These shows can be either local or national.  The bigger and more national shows are VERY expensive and yes, we pay to participate.  Sometimes, local shows are inexpensive but it still means you have to set up your "store".

This past Saturday, Silk Creations by Janey participated in the Dupont Circle Art Rave.  Arriving at 8:30 a.m. to a completely empty parking lot, it took 2.5 hrs to create this....

And then we closed at 5 p.m......and by 6 p.m., the parking lot was empty again.  It is a pretty strenuous job especially since Silk Creations by Janey is staffed by only one person....me.  All of the set up is done alone and keep in mind the grid walls weigh up to 80 lbs each.  Great workout!!!  Lol!!

As you can see, there are the parking space paints below the flooring I put down to create my "pop up" store.  So, this post is to let you know that original and one of a kind art work is not just the work on the piece....it is also what we do behind the scene.  That is why one of my creations is not the same price that you can buy a rayon scarf at Marshalls.  I love my work and each and every one is a unique and one of a kind piece of art you can wear.  Oh!!  And they are also washable! 

Thank you to all who came out to the First Sunday Festival on West Street in Annapolis on Sunday!

Silk Creations by Janey is so thankful for so many who came out to the First Sunday Festival on West Street!  It was a beautiful day in Annapolis.  The weather was perfect for the first Sunday in Annapolis.  A little warm, but the humidity was low and the sky was a clear and gorgeous blue.  I appreciate all who stopped by the booth and it was wonderful seeing old friends, getting help from others and meeting so many new people.  Many of the silks that were on display on Sunday that were not sold will now be available on Silkcreationsbyjaney.com  and my Etsy shop!!

Silk Creations by Janey will be at the First Sunday on West Street in Annapolis tomorrow! Please come by to see the new designs!!!

Tomorrow from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., please come enjoy artisans, craftsmen, food and great music at the First Sunday Festival in Annapolis, Maryland!  It is located on West Street and Calvert Streets in Annapolis!  I have been working hard all month preparing and have several new designs to premier!
