I know it's been almost a week but there has been a lot to catch up on around here. Since I put everything on hold while getting prepared for the show, I've been taking care of old business.
So I'm sure you've heard that Crafty Bastards was amazing. There were thousands of people there. I sold lots of stuff and even bought a couple of things. I think Team Lemon singlehandedly (or two fistedly) emptied Sticky Fingers of their vegan treats.
The first photo shows most of the booth at the very end of the day with two very tired team members, Steph Lemon (aka Sister In Law or Sister to my Husband, Mr. Lemon) and Mr. Lemon. Both are sporting items from the Lemon Cadet line. I think Mr. Lemon looks hot in that yeti tee. Soon the facial hair will disappear as he shaves for tonight's Mustache Show at Wild Zero studios. My friend Jen stopped by and she snapped this photo of me (if you're dying to see me hot and sweaty and holding a bean).
That's Ingrid of Team Lemon who not only let us stay at her house, but also helped out for most of the day. She was a madman with wrapping up items in tissue and making everything sparkle.
The beans were a huge success. I didn't bring home very many of them and I'll be adding those to the shop next week. They also got featured on the My Aim is True blog.
The new yeti screenprinted tees were also a hit. I still have lots of sizes for kids and ladies in stock and I'll be ordering more of the men's sizes later this week. I want to have more ready for Handmade Arcade. I'm not sure if they'll make it to the Etsy shop since I didn't print them myself. So if you want one, let me know.

The Lemon Cadet table looks like heaven. A very bean-y heaven. My kind of place.
Very envious of Crafty Bastards - we don't seem to have anything like it here (Aus). I really love your range - those beans are delightful. Well done
Thanks guys. Crafty Bastards was amazing. It was the best show I've ever done.
I really hope I can go again next year.
Very cool, I'm glad to finally hear about it. Mr. Lemon's face kills me in that photo, lol.
I wish I had some helpers at my farmer's market sometimes. Luckeeee.
It was great to have help! I usually don't. Mr. Lemon helps with the tent then he takes off and I don't see him until lunch.
What's funny though, is when I do take a break, he always sells a pair of panties. Always.
He has sold more panties at shows than I have.
Your booth looks great and I love the yeti tee Mr. Lemon is wearing. Glad you had a good show!
Thanks! I'm thinking of adding them to the shop. I'll need to take some more pics of Mr. Lemon and Steph [team lemon] in their shirts.
