Arts and Craft Show with the Girls

By Nancy Bell @nancyfancyfree

Today I went to my first craft show in many, many years! It was a fun girl’s day scooping out all the cute new crafts for the summer and Fourth of July. We all met up at my house this morning, had our cup of coffee for all the energy we needed to take on the crazy ladies at the craft show.
Half the fun at craft shows is laughing at all the funny and interesting crafts for sale. All of us spent a good chunk of the afternoon laughing so hard we were crying. Some of the things people come up with…I have no words to describe…haha I forgot how much fun craft shows are especially if you are with your girlfriends.

A few of my friends bought a couple little crafts but I only bought a beautiful cold porcelain mermaid.

I use craft shows to get ideas how to make my own. Although I am not really a creative or crafty person, I have been getting more ambitions when it comes to crafts and décor.

Thanks to my work at the floral shop I have been channeling my inner crafter. I got some really cute ideas for the Fourth of July parties we are working and some cute summer decorations I can make for my home. I can’t wait to start making them.

When we finally finished roaming around the arts and craft show isles we made our way to a nice little restaurant nearby. My friends are the best, they are crazy. You would have thought that we were a bunch of teenage girls giggling and chatting away at the restaurant. Having such a great group of friends keeps me smiling and feeling young!

Today was such a fun day, but I am exhausted! We did so much walking around and laughing I feel like I just got done with a tough work out. Between dancing at the wedding last weekend and walking all around the craft show this weekend, I have been finding really fun ways to exercise and have a great time!

Until Next Time,
