Here's the big news!

Little sneak peek of how my booth may look.


So this year as many of you know I've set out some goals to accomplish as a new business. One of those goals was to attend at least one craft show this year. 


I've already announced that I am proud to say I'm on my way to that goal and will be attending the Blessing of the Fleet show on May 5 & 6th. Holy moly that's 2 weeks from today!!! You can find info about the show HERE.

Another great piece of information that I've been dying to share is that Innov8ive Knits has been accepted to a 2nd craft show... Drumroll please: The Gulf Coast Hot Air Balloon Festival!!! This is a juried show and I worked super hard on my application for this one. I must admit I was very intimidated by trying to get in BUT I did and I couldn't be more excited! This is a really fun show in Foley, Alabama with lots of beautiful hot air balloon flights in a lovely part of town. You can find more information about this show: HERE.




I am so thrilled to share and know that I have gone above and beyond my goal this year as far as shows go. Now the really hard work begins. Both of these shows are right around the corner so now it's time to knit through all hours of the night and prepare my booth for all of you to see!!! I can't wait to get the chance to finally meet a lot of my customers in person and get to interact face to face with you. When it gets closer to time, if I know exactly where my booths will be I will let you know. I'd love to see you there at either or both so don't hesitate to come and stop by. I'll be handing out some goodies for those of you who do :)

  2. Thats so wonderful! I'm so happy that you are achieving your goals. I've never done a craft show before because I'm totally intimidated so I'm going to live vicariously through you!

    1. I totally understand that! It was very intimidating just putting the applications together. I never thought it would be this successful! Even though I was intimidated, I knew that if I wanted to take me and my business seriously I had to treat it seriously. So forced myself to put my fears aside and put myself out there. I think you would do well if you applied. The worse they can say is no.

  6. Congratulations! Your hard work is going to pay off! You will have so much fun at your shows. I have two shows the two weekends after my wedding in May...yikes! Should be a blast though :)
    Have you heard of the Gulf Shores Shrimp Festival? I applied for that, so...fingers crossed. I thought you might now about it since you're doing one close by.

    1. OH wow you are a brave woman!!! LOL. I didn't apply for the shrimp festival but I know about it. Personally the fees were too high for me. Maybe in a couple of years when I have a lot more product to bring to the table. I hope that you hear back from them Good luck!
