October 2009

Well.... this campaign is coming to an end. We had hoped to make more money for the kidz books... but in this economic climate - it didn't happen. We have broken even! So, anything we make now will be for books! We attended a craft fair to see if we could sell out some of our products - we did great and this fair allowed us to make back the $$ we invested. There are some special orders left to fill and some sales will trickle in on the remaining cards.We have sold out of our puppy pails!! Thanks for the support to anyone checking in on this blog. A final tally will be posted when it is really all done.

Blueberry Festival in Somesville

We made 170 dollars today for the Kidz books! A beautiful sunny day to sit by the mill pond and ocean - Timber handled the heat well - I had a canopy and fans to keep us cool. Will get a report from Pier later, who went to the Blueberry Festival in Machias to sell our pails.
