first day street bumming it.

Woodstock Street Festival in Portland! March Fourth, one of my favorite bands, was in the parade...they make me full of happiness. A guy bought me 2 eggrolls and icetea (randomly) because he thought i was going hungry? Still unsure about that one. Some other street venders were a little snobby but my friends at Ace Hardware were so sweet and let me set up right infront of their store. I passed out a lot of business cards, kids would come up and watch me work on earrings, and I sold one small pair! :) Older people thought they were too expensive, hipsters wanted to make their own, and teenagers wanted all the bright colored ones. So I definately learned a few things.

I'm hoping to tackle a few more streets this next week since I have earrings made, so wish me luck!

Favorite moment: a 5yr old walks by and tells her mom as she looks at the earrings, "mom! I think I need to pierce my ears so I can wear feathers!"
