Boerne Market Days In Boerne, Texas

We picked this show up last minute since we knew we couldn’t go too long with out having a show, after 2 weekends off we were a bit rusty. We had to relearn how to build our tent, we didn’t know what was going on, we got tired fast...nah we were fine. But it was good to be back in the game and meeting the public. I don’t know what we are gonna do after the longer break we are going to take in a few weeks.

This show being a “market” type show was a real "anything goes" but we knew that going into in so we didn’t bitch at all the crazy crap that was there. But just like people’s fair in Denver it had something for everybody. The crowd was pretty good on Saturday but we didn’t see much action. We were about ready to write this show off. The only good thing was that it was only 100 bucks to play and we broke even pretty quick.

However Sunday was a kicker, we had a collector come around and commission a ton of drawings, prints and Hannah’s can art. We sold another hand full of originals and a few necklaces which rounded this show off really nice. The weather warmed up a bit and had everyone out and about and loving every minute of it. The music was pretty good and not too loud so we could speak to the people that came in the booth.

So about the show, there were tons and tons and tons of vendors selling just about everything you could imagine. I was referred to as “the guy with the art” more than once by the other vendors. A few people who wanted to see art were pleased we were there too. The crowds seemed to have money and if they wanted something they got it. Set up and tear down was good, parking was great, all in all not that bad of a show, although we might not do it again but only cuz of timing not the style of the show.

On to Albuquerque to our last show of the year which puts us at 38 for the year. We checked the weather and its already cold over there, we might hit the snow, at least its an indoor show. We really racked up the commissions and we still need to work on our children’s book and I want to start thinking about what it is I want to do for 2012, its going to be our 10 year anniversary of art by nemo. I want to do something big but I haven’t got a clue what, would love any ideas if you good folks have any.
