Pack the man-car
Get the supervisor's OK and head of to Melbourne
to an empty shell
Fill it was stuff from the man-car
fiddle and tweak until the driver of the man-car almost passes out with boredom
and then come home, upload the photos and think about the things you will move / change early in the morning before the real life visitors arrive!
WOW looks like you are in business......have a good sleep...i think you are in for some fun....
ReplyDeleteLooks great wish I was in Melbourne so I could come :(, have a fab time. Christine
ReplyDeleteOh, I would love to browse in your booth! Good luck and I hope you sell out of everything!
ReplyDeleteLooking great in there......
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to have a good wander around on Saturday, love the Stitches and Craft Show.

ReplyDeleteaww. good luck hope you sell lots and lots your store looks AWESOME!

ReplyDeleteI'm terribly worried that you will have sold out of Bot kits before I get there on Saturday. Hell, I'm worried I'll turn up Saturday morning and the whole Show will have sold out of everything!

ReplyDeleteLooks great Jodes!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic ! I am excited and nervous now and I'm not even going . You can just be excited and have fun for me !
ReplyDeleteIt all looks lovely Jodie, wish I could go now. PS. my husband has wised up and doesn't leave the man car in my care any more. Its amazing what you can fit in them. :0)
ReplyDeleteI wish I could convey to you just how desperately I wish I was in Melbourne this weekend.
ReplyDeleteInstead I'm surrounded by wailing children, a trashed house and strict instructions to not drive, sit, lift or live. GODDAMNIT.
Heehee, was that the man there with you? You didn't add his help in! Then you could have got away with anything....god, those frames look great, gloss paint, right?
ReplyDeleteWell it already looks fabuloso, but I am a tweaker 'til the cows come home and the man car driver really does pass out - so I get it. Have a grand show Mrs.
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome! soooooooo jealous of the population of Melbourne right now :(
ReplyDeleteThat is one awesome looking stall! I can't wait to come and see it for real!
ReplyDeleteThe trolley made it! I thought it was staying at home? The whole stall looks fab!
ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful and big! Sooooo excited to see it for real tomorrow. Hope your brain turns off for a bit and lets you have some sleep tonight.
ReplyDeleteLooks brilliant! Wish I could come down to check things out close up. Bravo to man-car as well! Sleep well and hope everything goes swimmingly!! :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to come and visit your stand. It looks super fabulous! Thank goodness you made it to Melbourne before the rain.
ReplyDeleteThe stand looks sensational! Can't wait to come and see it properly tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteWoot have fun, but I didn't see your helper cat in the stall.
ReplyDeleteJod, it looks like you've snapped your fingers and unloaded a little bit of home right there in your booth. Absolutely fab!!
ReplyDeleteRemember, breathing is good, caffeine is better and sleep perchance to dream is... well hopefully a realistic option tonight!
Does your man-car watch Predator?
ReplyDeleteWhat a silly cat! :D
ReplyDeleteWhat a silly cat! :D
ReplyDeleteYour booth looks super nice, by the way.
Looks wonderful Jody!! Now I'd like to see a picture of you pushing your cart around - - "Get you crafts here, get your red hot crafts!"
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to you!
Yvette
I would kill to be there. Murder. I'd commit murder to be there. Of course, I'd blame it on temporary insanity. Clearly, I'd be insane the moment I saw all of your adorable stuff.
ReplyDeletePS-Let this be my confession.
best of luck - it looks great!
ReplyDeleteYour stand looks fab untweaked! Hope it all goes brilliantly - good luck boss :o)

p.s. feeling very stupid as I thought it was happening on the weekend just gone. Having realised it's on the coming weekend I thought maybe I could book a flight after all but wouldn't you know it, the stoopid ash cloud is messing about with the planes again - I was so close to getting there too!
Jodie it's looking FAN-flipping-TASTIC!
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing and you will have an amazing time - and so will anyone who comes along to see you - so WHY CAN'T I COME TOO?????????
I'm sooooooo jealous of everyone down-under who is getting to come over to play!

Oh, looks so inviting, Jodie! Wishing you a wonderful and successful time.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
Your booth looks incredible!!! I wish I could come and have a long browse, but alas, I live in the wrong city. Hope you have an awesome few days at the show. I'm looking forward to hearing all about it once you return.
ReplyDeleteMelbourne? In Australia? As much as I would LOVE to come and visit -- and buy -- and gab -- and MAKE -- I'm sitting in Seattle, Washington, US of A and not quite capable of hopping on over.
ReplyDeleteBUT, I'm seriously in lust with your wonderous goodies.
May there be many like me there!!!
Bonnie
looking gorgeous! Can't wait to see it in person. TODAY!
ReplyDeleteI can feel the excitment building. Stay cool Jodie, I'm sure it will all going amazing well.
ReplyDeleteHugs ~ Kerryanne
Wow! Your booth looks great, good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh, Jodi, I'm so excited and I won't even be there!
ReplyDeleteI've been to dozens of craft shows and I've just realised why this one (that I'm not attending) is special - I've had a behind-the-scenes look at what goes into all those wonderful (and some not so wonderful) stalls! Thank you!
It looks fabulous. I hope you don't sell out of goodies before I get the chance to visit!
ReplyDeleteJodie it looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteWish I could be there.
good luck
Rebecca
Looks great. How exciting. Sorry I'm a bit too far away to drop in.
ReplyDeleteLOVE it!
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome. Hope you get a little rest squeezed in there somewhere over the weekend.
Jodie this is seriously wickedly cool. I hope that by the time you read this you are exhausted with that happy exhaustion of an awesome amazing time of hard work that was so much more worth it than you even imagined.
ReplyDeleteThanks for you and your gorgeous blog and your stunning creativity.
Jodie, I am SO jealous that I am in the other hemisphere of the planet. I wish I were coming to visit. Those little boxes with the holes for color-seeing - ahhhhhhhh. You are going to be a HIT. Have a lovely, lovely time there!
ReplyDeleteGotta love a man with a good ute!
