Green Works Laundry Detergent at the Make It Fair in Vancouver!

Wowowee!

Matchstick.ca and Its Your Life and Make It Fair Vancouver and Clorox Green Works Laundry Detergent all combine into this!

well the make it fair comes in later-- but look! they sent me this lovely laundry detergent, green reusable bag, delicates bag for the washing machine and a biodegradable 95% natural all purpose cleaner. Will use and blog verdict later on!
Meanwhile... there are 75 gift bags and only 30 samples and coupons. i think the samples and the coupons should go together otherwise the coupon might just get tossed on its own. so in random gift bags on each day, samples and free coupons for a whole jug of Clorox Green Works detergent will be included. Come on down to the Make It Productions Handmade Revolution fair this Nov 20-22 at the Croatian Cultural Center (3250 Commercial Drive) there will be liquor served at the bar and djs!


So the first 25 people in each fair get a swag bag (thats 3 days of chances to be one of the first 25 people in to get a swag bag ok guys) and designers of the Make It fair will be adding samples- ill be making prob little trinkets or charms or sumthin, but also for those swag bag recipients you might be also getting a sample of Clorox Green Works laundry detergent and a coupon for a whole jug of it for free! Its like, woah hello free laundry detergent coupon wherever they sell it in canada.



come to the Make It Fair for your christmas pressies! http://www.makeitproductions.com/


You need this! Best thing is its 95% natural and has biodegradable natural plant based ingredients and stuff. Purrfect....


You might get a free coupon for a whole jug of the stuff and sample. In the gift bag. At the Make It fair. Go get it!!


Matchstick.ca is also asking you readers to please do this survey regarding youre awareness of this product before you read my blog post: http://www.feedback.matchstick.ca/se.ashx?s=439B5E1D0F98116D . For every completed survey they receive, they will be making a $2 donation to The Redwood, a family support shelter that offers assistance to those less fortunate (www.theredwood.com) which I think is pretty darn cool....


ps ill bring some samples and coupons to the blim and got craft fairs too..
xoxo

lockets.
this is such a cute owl locket necklace. i have oxidized the wicked brass box chain, locket and mini owl to a perfect antique finish.


cameo lockets with gemstones! so pretty and feminine without being too girly.
this one features a vintage blue roses cameo and blue amazonite gemstone beads.


this one has the sweetest vintage holly hobbie cameo and green adventurine gemstone beads...


then i made these double set vintage postage stamp necklaces. i think they are so nice. the illustrations on the stamps are perfect. these are all one of a kind. the stamps are encased in a vintage beveled plastic.

this one is of a green viking type ship stamp, and i have added a vintage mini locket which i affixed a skull and a brass sailboat charm. the charms have been hand oxidized for a nice antique finish.


this ones got this weird character that looks wicked. i thought its red and green colors were appropriate for the up coming christmas season gift ideas.


this ones a lovely peachy princess wishing at a well...


then there is this set of 3 beaded vintage cameo pieces. i used Czech Renaissance beads. the beads are gorgeous and have a lovely luster to them.
this one is of a lady in waiting... pinkish rose gold beads


here the lady found a gent and they chat about oh dogs and poems and plays and parties, the girl loves it...
the color if the beads are this darkish greenish blueis with a luster and some kind of mottled spots...


here they are already in a loving embrace, or rather the dude is all up on her..
here the beads are purple but look bronze due to the luster, such a nice sheen...

displays and a halloween pic

um, the fair last was completely terrible. i think i made negative 40 bucks. WTF and i was all ooohhh!!!! i got into portobello west! lame. if i get accepted to do the other shows i think i will just say no, thanks, really id rather save my money... but!! gosh did i go off making lots of really nice stuff and crazy displays. it was the whole allure of being a 'big deal' kind of fair, but there were more people that came to buy stuff at the blim and gotcraft fairs...but hey, i bought a little shelfie thingy for my bags even... much better...
pics of my table and some of the displays i made out of foamcore and lace paper:












and here are the back sides:



alvaro came and helped me all week that week, and he even came to the fair and styed with me all day. its just too bad it was such a bad day to make money. so tired afterwards and so disappointed.
