Rose Bowl May 2015

Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful mother's.

Today was another vendoring day at the Rose Bowl. It was a nice sunny, breezy day. In short, the weather was beautiful.

Again, I had my 10 x 10 vendor booth stocked with my handcrafted goodies and crafting supplies.

Since it's Mother's Day today, there were a lot of mother and daughter pairs strolling around. There were also a lot more families together.

I also noticed today people weren't buying as they did in previous months. I talked with other vendor's. They expressed the same observations. 

Rose Bowl April 2015

This Sunday was Rose Bowl April. That's why my blog is going out later than usual. I had to get up at 4:00 am in order to pack up and get ready for the event. The rules are you must be inside the Rose Bowl as a vendor before 6:30 am or you lose your spot. 

Even though the flea market doesn't officially open until 9:00 am, there are vendors and store owners who are cruising around between 6:30 - 9:00 am buying the best merchandise early.

All in all, I had a lot of fun. Not only did I sell my handcrafted jewelry, I also setup a wall of supplies. The supply wall sold well. Mostly chains and charms. 

Rose Bowl Vendor - Pasadena California 91103

Forgot to mention last month, I have finally started selling at the biggest flea market in California, the Rose Bowl. It's so nice that the event is only a couple blocks from my home. Come look me up. I'm a permanent vendor located in a 10x10' spot in the middle of the crafting section just left of the Exit Gate B, booth 865. 

I'm selling my handcrafted jewelry, some dream catchers I made and all the crafting supplies and jewelry kits I have on hand. Good thing I have a truck. I'm just so glad I decided to start selling here when I did. While purchasing my permanent spot, I was told there were only a few spots left. Whew! Almost missed out again. I'm now paid thru June. I know it's early but already I can't wait for the holidays. So, look for Teach Me Clay the 2nd Sunday every month at the Rose Bowl!

Pomona Swap Meet & Classic Car Show

This year, I am committed to participating in as many Crafting Fairs, Bead Shows, Flea Markets and Swap Meets that I can. I am enjoying the contacts I'm meeting from my jewelry business and website so much that I feel it's time to spread my wings to the max.

When I expressed my plans to a friend, he told me about the Pomona Swap Meet & Classic Car Show. So, we made plans and attended today. My friend is very familiar with the event since he use to bring cars and parts in as a vendor for many years.
