The Plan
Do you sell your jewelry or beads at shows? If you do, then you will know what I mean when I say, "What is your plan?"
I don't know about you, but I agonize over shows. My plan is usually, simply (ha! never simple!) this.....to have some of everything, in every size, shape and color.
But you know what.......even with a lot of hours, hard work, and determination, I never get there. Because there is so much more that goes into shows, that the actual making of the jewelry somehow doesn't always get done! Now, don't get me wrong, I have plenty to sell. Yet, I always want something new at each show. I always want to fine tune my display (and to prove it, you can click here to see my displays through the years, and how much they have changed).
I always need to make a new sign for something. I always need to run out and get things at the last minute. And I never get to make all the wonderful things that fill my head, fill my sketch books, & fill my lists.
I think I am learning, that the plan, is simply that, a plan. It is not the only way, or the way it has to be, but a plan, to guide me along, until I simply run out of time. I am learning to go with the flow.
So what is your plan for shows? Do you feel like you never get done all that you want to?
