Hi! I just wanted to say...THANK YOU to everyone who visited me at the Asian Heritage Month Celebration at Mel Lastman Square this past weekend! ๐ฅน It meant a lot to be able to do this event again! To everyone who bought something, said hi, chuckled at one of my drawings and simply dropped by, thank you for your support! ๐ It still blows my mind sometimes that someone would want to buy something I made, so I don't take it for granted!
I also stayed up for the whole night before the event finishing up my Chinese Fortune Stick reading station! It was a risk...I was both excited and very nervous about it. Would anyone do it? Is it even a good idea? So to anyone who got a fortune stick reading, YOU ARE THE BEST! ๐ฅฐ Thank you for showing interest in my crazy idea! Now the question is, should I do it again at a future event? ๐ค
I'd also like to thank my neighbours
and ! I'm sorry I wasn't as chatty as usual because I honestly didn't sleep AT ALL and my head was pounding, but whenever we did interact, I was happy to be alongside such a talented bunch! I really wanted to say hi to a lot more of the other vendors friends there but I was not feeling great. ๐
A huge thanks to .welcome.market, Cindy and her whole team of volunteers who took on such a big undertaking! A 2-day outdoors event is NOT easy to plan and execute, and you were all so organized and on top of things that we vendors felt like we were in good hands despite some of the unfortunate weather conditions (so much rain and wind at times)! Thank you for having me!!
Last but not least, to my husband, family and relatives who helped me out this entire weekend...thank you for taking time out of your lives to make it easier for me to do this! I would've given up long ago out of exhaustion if I was doing this on my own! โค๏ธ
Can't wait to do this again next year! ๐
