End of Season Wrap-Up 2025
Though a few weeks have passed
since the end of our craft show season,
I would like to offer my sincere thanks
to each and every one of you that stopped by my canopy
for Barefoot Reflections Jewelry this past season.
Whether it was somewhere here in the Wildwood’s
or my other show home, Ocean City, NJ.
You each brought the peace, smiles and hugs that keep me going!
On our end, we are attempting to slowly catch up on all the things
that get either delayed/ignored during the season…
the outside gardens here this summer looked like the gardener died… 😳
the inside of the house looks like there has been a struggle as well…
and the bead room, IT ALWAYS looks like a struggle,
but it totally reflects the great season we had!!!
We’ve also been squeezing in a few days of R&R…
Actually WENT TO the Cranberry Festival with my daughter last weekend -
- loved all the different type vendors and the size of the show and the crowds -
BUT ALL THE DUST reminded me why I only did the show once years ago…
AND also had my 2 day tattoo appt out in PA
that everyone knows is a bit of my ongoing sanity project…
Hitting Longwood Gardens this coming weekend
AND on November 15, onto my favorite happy place
with my daughter, back to the room where it happens,
Hamilton in NYC with OC Leslie Odom Jr…
And REGARDING HAMILTON BRACELETS…
I AM getting those reminder requests I asked you to send me
and I thank all of you for your patience.
This week and next, the beadroom will get sorted
and the table cleared and available for leather,
unfortunately harder than it sounds… 🫤
Those of you who have reached out -
I HAVEN’T FORGOTTEN YOU - and I am making a list.
PLEASE BE AWARE - I have gotten a few text messages with no names,
so could you please do me the favor of RESENDING those interest requests
- WITH YOUR NAME INCLUDED -
so I have your name and can put you on the list…
I am also asking you to either TEXT ME @ 609.425.7878
OR EMAIL ME - RE: HAMILTON BRACELETS in the subject
As I am having issues with Facebook Messenger messages,
as I see the alert when they pop-up, but when I go to try and read it,
it gets lost somewhere between the business page and my personal one,
and so far, I haven’t been able to figure it out… (no kids at home…)
So, my plan is to have GOOD photos up (better than below…)
by the end of next week - Nov 8
and to have my end ready to begin taking orders.
Once again, on behalf of myself and Joe,
I thank all of you for your support
and for wonderful energy you bring when you stop by!!!
