Arts and Craft Festivals

I am getting ready for some shows that are happening in the summer, starting in June.
There are wonderful tips on line for setting up a booth so it is enticing to lookers and buyers. Some I knew already and have used, but a lot of them I had never thought of.
So I am working on display distribution. I get a piece of paper and plan out different settings for tables, grids, shelves etc.
Also there is a place in the front of my new tent for a banner across the top. It will say something like:
ART OF THE OCEANS and below over to the right KIDS BOOKS.  Whimsical art will surround the lettering and I haven't decided on the background color for the banner.

Some people can't imagine where to place a piece of art in their home, so they need a little help. I set up an ocean art piece in my new bathroom and another one in the kitchen to show that art is wonderful in a kitchen.
When it gets warmer, I am going to clean out the studio and set up a children's corner with another painting.

This has been a big bad winter in upstate New York. Lots of snow and ice, but not as bad as New York city.
I have been staying inside most of the time because I hate the cold, but on the other hand it has allowed me to do some more writing. I have also composed some music.
I dragged out some stories that I started years ago and am redoing them.
Also I sent in some short stories last week to a company who does cover, query letters, editing etc. for the writer. I'm scared of query letters, so I went ahead and hired them. We'll see if they are any good or not.
I'm setting up some book signings for the spring and summer. Also I'm going to try the farmer's markets. Maybe I can sell some art there too.
I took a picture of the lilac bush the other night when we had a short snow storm.
