Tonight you can find me at the Norwell football game with some of my German Club members. We are selling chocolate for our Chicago trip.

Good Morning from Stauffer Farms on SR 116 in Markle.

There are over 60 vendors here with me and we will be set up from 10-6 today and tomorrow.

Stauffers’ are offering hay rides and other fun activities. They have gorgeous mums and giant pumpkins.

Come and see us!

If you haven’t tried a Beauregard from you are missing out. And yes, the hubby and I are playing a two person game of “What do you Meme” while we sip among the apple trees.

Thanks for showing up today Fort Wayne! I treated myself to a new pair of QNB earrings and the hubby is taking me out for Chinese. My eyes won’t stay open, but I promise it’s the exhaustion and not alcohol…yet. 💜💜💜

Don’t neglect while you are here. The boys’ bonus mom was nice enough to step away from her and Melissa’s booth to allow me a restroom and sand which buying break.

We are downtown until 6PM.

I Made some parts that I could finish up while I am here. I am enjoying the final products.

We are all here until 6PM, so you still have four hours to make it!

Come and check out the jewelry at my check out table.

Some of it is slightly mid-stamped, most of it was just improperly stored and it oxidized. All of it is 50% off because I don’t wanna take it all off of the jewelry cards and Polish it. Let my laziness be your gain, and make this jewelry disappear!

Pick up a sunshine cloth while you are here and use it to refresh all of your non-plated metal jewelry.

Today marks my last regular Saturday appearance at the YLNI Barr Street Market this summer. I will be back on a bi-weekly basis through September. The students come back this Wednesday and I will be completely fried by Friday 😬🤷🏻‍♀️. The first two weeks are brutal!

Come see me to create your perfect stack today or come back in two weeks. Send me back to school with a candy budget so that I can continue my tradition of throwing candy to random students in the hall! 🤗

It’s a beautiful day for the market! We are here until 1PM.

I’m all set up at the YLNI Farmer’s Market. I’m two tents down from the music tent on Berry and I’m trying out a new set up again 😬.

I still have grab bags available. The price is now $20. I also have last year’s jewelry (from before I had plastic sheets to cover the jewelry cards. They need polished, so they are 50% off.

New pricing will be available at the YLNI Farmer’s Market tomorrow from 9-1.

Pricing is hard y’all. I use a formula that takes the cost of materials and my time into account…but honestly, trying to remember all of the prices for all of the different materials takes up too much mental space. I’m spending hours today trying to streamline and reprice my items in the hope that it will be easier to move forward from here. Most items have been reduced to fit them in a new pricing category. If you’ve had your eye on a piece that wasn’t in your price range, come check it out tomorrow.

If any of you get a chance to visit Bloomington, The Elm should definitely be on your list of places to visit. As stated by my twin cousin and employee, the food is art.

I’m here. I’m damp. I put up ALL the tent side panels, yet everything is damp. BUT the rain is lightening and the storms won’t start until 2 and I won’t start packing up until 1.

I still have some (now damp) grab bags that were so much fun to sell last week.

I have restocked my “dainty curses” earrings with a new variety of four/five letter words.

Come on up to the YLNI market today for a damp adventure!

P.S. someone please remind me to bring towels when there is a call for rain. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Best part of the holiday. Water and family. Boy pod.

Aaaand, I’m calling it. Thankful Joe and the bonus boys were here to help me pack up!

See y’all next Saturday.

My first customers chose a grab bag and they had so much fun opening and I had so much fun watching and listening to them discover their new found wealth.

I am here! YLNI Farmers Market (I’m on Berry) until 1 PM or until we get shut down for storms.

I brought a reduced selection in case I need to pack up quickly in a storm. If you want any of my birthday symbolism jewelry, please do place an order or wait for next Saturday.

The eldest bonus child and I figured out how to add walls, and I am trying out my new check out stand! Come support your local artists and growers and bakers and makers!

How do you all feel about grab bags full of old products from my QBeadMixology days and from the last couple of years too. Each randomly filled bag is worth a minimum of $54. (A breakdown of list price: 1 x $54, 4x $60, 1x $62, 1x $65, 1x $68, 2X $75, 1x $80, and 1x $90). Please also use your “grab bag tag” for 10% off one regularly priced item.

Play the jewelry lottery where everyone is a winner! $25/mystery grab bag. No returns. No exchanges.

Pride Month is coming to a close, but let’s all keep on glowing all day, every day of the year! streaming on Apple TV

The fantastical stamps were calling this evening. They shall be cleaned up and formed and ready for the market on Saturday!

I e been playing with my enameling kiln today! I think I found the sweet spot for glass dust coverage and time…now to figure out how to get the fire scale off the back without damaging the enamel. I think I need thicker gauge copper.

I’m back on Berry until 1PM!

Many thanks to “Knot Just Macrame” coming in clutch with the tent weights and to YLNI for having extra tables to rent. My beautiful eldest packed the car for me and I made the mistake of not checking before I left. Whoops!
