My first Craft Show

I just had my first craft show last weekend in a church.

I chose an outdoor booth but because of the rain, I got moved to indoor. And because of this, we have a very cozy show.

I was kind of nervous before the show, especially after I know that my husband won't be able to stay with me. But thanks to my best friends, she came and stayed with me for half the show time and helped me to take down everything.

This is not a very busy show due of the rain. But I still make some money and not one mean customer. For the first show, I am really happy about it. Can't wait for my second show in 1.5 weeks.

Here are the pinback buttons.

Holiday Boot Camp Pledge

I, Canndy Pan AKA PapaDesign , pledge to participate in the Etsy Success Holiday Boot Camp to the best of my abilities. I vow to check in every week, do my homework and support my fellow Holiday Boot Campers. I will read the weekly newsletters and blog posts, check in on the weekly forum thread, read the weekly blog post, check off the checklists and salute the mascot. I promise to share what I've learned with those who need it, support my fellow Etsy indiepreneurs and, most of all, have a positive and persistent attitude. I understand that together we can spread the word about our handmade and vintage goods, making this holiday season a more unique and meaningful one to gift givers and give-ees everywhere!

The Plumbers Wardrobe t-shirt

Playing Super Mario Wii is what me and my husband do almost everyday. I am not a good player, almost die in every other 5 min. But it's just a fun way to spend time with my husband.

We also have the original super Mario game in our wii machine. And the plumber guy surely have many clothes. This is what this T-SHIRT about. I hope they will have an updated version including new clothes from wii version. Available in Splitreason.com.

Glass Pendants

I always wanted to try glass pendants. So I bought a craft kit from kristenskrafts in ETSY.
In this kit, I can make 5 different shape glass pendants, 1 scrabble tile pendant and 1 bottle cap magnet. This is a fun experience. In this kit, she also included some beautiful images, but I used my own images to finish those. Love those.

Animal Die Cuts

I just finished an alchemy order from ETSY for a customer last week.
I made total 25 two layers die cuts with totally seven designs. Some are around 10.5" height and some are around 5"-7". Here are some pictures I made.

Onigiri - Rice Ball

I was in Taxes last week to visit my sister-in-law's graduation. My goodness, the weather, just way to HOT!! Especially for the people from San Diego!! But it was nice to be with family. We also spend some time back in San Diego. We went to SeaWorld and I made some rice balls using the rice ball maker I bought from a Japan Market a long time ago.

It's really easy to make, just have the rice into the bigger container and push the smaller cover together. When it done, just pop the rice ball out.

For making delicious rice ball is very easy. I bought the rice seasoning from a Korean Market. You can buy it in any Asian Market. There are so many different favors to choose. I used Wasabi seasoning this time. First, Mix the freshly cooked rice and rice seasoning together. Taking some mixed rice into the rice ball maker to fill just half the container.

I also put some dried fish floss inside. Then I put more rice in to fill the whole container.

It's Done!!
