NEW NEW NEW

Back in October I mentioned that I had some exciting news to share.
The first part of this statement has already been revealed.That would be the December Trunk Show that i'm doing at the Columbus Museum Of Art.It's going to be AWESOME.

Next on my list of announcements is my NEW creations(pictured).
You get a sneak peek at my NEW Matryoshka Doll design.
The face is painted onto the fabric.Then I cut out the fabric for the body and attached with some fun stiches.
I think shes ADORABLE :o)

I also created a NEW line of Zippy Cosmetic bags.
There bigger than my other style of zippies, so you can put more stuff in them.
I made a mini sized Geisha Girl (pictured) and a Martyoshka Doll (pictured) to put on the front of them.
This would be a great bag to carry your essentials in as well, when you want to leave your purse at home.

I will be listing them in my Etsy shop SOON :o)

Craftin' Outlaws 2009

I didn't get to take to many photos this past weekend at Craftin' Outlaws.
I was to busy talking to customers and talking to my neighbors.
and when my booth sitter(my husband)wasn't busy with his volunteer duties,I walked the show to see the other vendors and crafty friends.
This is definetly my favorite picture I took.
My Baby B with her mommy in her cool shirt I got for her at What The Rock ?!
You can see more photos from this year and from previous years in the

Mary Moon Designs sets up shop at first ever Oddmall

This last weekend I set up shop in Hudson,Ohio for the first ever Oddmall Emporium of the Weird.
Me and Mr.Moon drove up Friday night and set up the booth when we got there.We went out for dinner afterwards,it was late when we got back so we headed off to bed.It was nice to wake up knowing all I had to do was put out a few things and touch up my display.
It did take some thought as to how to set up my booth though.We were given a 8 foot by 6 foot space.Most of the shows we do have the standard 10' by 10' space but there usually outdoor events.I went with the "lemonade stand" style set up and worked from behind the table.
The customers were great,I really enjoyed talking to them and showing them my creations.It's so nice to get out of your local scene and meet new people and introduce them to Mary Moon Designs.We had really good neighbors as well,Deb(Artistic Flair) and her sister-in-law kept us entertained.

Special thanks to Jill(Pink Sky) for taking a photo of my booth.Mr.Moon had his camera but never took it out of his pocket.At least I have one photo from the event.
The vendors of the Oddmall were mostly from northern Ohio.I met a bunch of new talented and creative artists.I was able to find some great fun gifts for my kiddies as well.
Overall I say the show was a success.Being it was the "first ever" Oddmall,it brought in a good crowd that were making purchases.I sold pretty well and met new people and artists.I had a few local friends to chat with (SDS) and had some quality time with Mr.Moon.

Next week I will be setting up shop in Whetstone for the first ever Eco Chic Craftacular hosted by Etsy Team Columbus.You need to come out and check this show out,it is going to be something special,I can't wait.

"M" is for Marvelous

Photo Opp :o)
I was working on a project late last night.I took all my scrap felt pieces that were laying on the ground and bunched them together.I thought it looked colorful and cute. So I made the letter "M" for Moon out of them and snapped a photo.

Orange you going to look at my new bag in my ETSY shop ? ? ?

NOT FOR SALE !!! (YET)

I just made this the other night.
WHAT DO YA THINK ?????

Strange Folk Festival

We went to O'Fallen Illinois this past weekend to the Strange Folk Festival.Me and my daughter volunteered our time Sunday morning.We were assigned to the kids craft table.We had so much fun making shrinky dinks with the kids,and for ourselves obviously.This is pics of some of our collection of mini masterpieces :0)

I think it's going to be a Strange weekend

Lookin forward to the next one

It was a long,long day but we had a great time at the Craftin' Outlaws show this past Saturday.We met a lot of great vendors
and customers.It was also great to see and spend some time with people we already know.My husband made the sign that was in front of BoMA and the Plinko game that was used at the event.We also helped with the set up and tear down.I worked the vender check in and brought the much needed coffee.A BIG THANK YOU to Liz for letting us be a part of the show.

This is from an e-mail written by Liz(Craftin' Outlaws)
Check the vendors out now to start making your shopping list! We were able to select a large variety of items, styles, and price ranges- something for just about everyone.
We had an overwhelming number of applications this year- I think everyone is excited about the new venue, BoMA. Our previous years we had to deal with dark cramped conditions, half indoors and half out, inclement weather, tent poles, etc. This year we have a fantastic new venue, that although we will still be filling with vendors- the layout and indoor location with great lighting should provide a much better shopping experience.
Mark your calendar now-
Craftin' Outlaws 4th Annual Alternative Craft Fair
at BoMA (Bar of Modern Art)
583 E Broad St, downtown Columbus
August 16 from noon until 7p
Don't forget it is free admission and all ages- so bring your friends and family. There is free parking in the patron parking lot directly behind BoMA and also on Broad and surrounding streets.
Hope to see you there! Remember, Craftin' Outlaws is the ONLY 4th Annual Alternative Craft Fair in town, the biggest of its kind in Ohio. The hip craft fair you know and love- just a little earlier and at a new venue! If you are aware of the controversy- show your support and help spread the word where Craftin' Outlaws is and isn't this year...
