Before the holidays, we were busy preparing for Christmas orders and for a local, shopping event. My fingers were raw, and wrists were sore.. but I was able to stitch more pieces for this show than ever before!
We went with more of a black themed table, so the geeky, cross stitch characters and quotes would really pop.
I even constructed the peg-board display! After a trip to the hardware store, a couple stripped screws, and two coats of paint, the hinged display was complete.
This season, I also made nerdy, stocking ornaments featuring popular characters like Mario, Link, and Pac Man wearing Santa hats. There are still a few available (and on sale!) in our Etsy shop.
Special shout out to my batman, Dan, for being there the whole day to help. He is a pro at swiping cards, talking about video games to adorable kids, and running to get me yummy smoothies :)
It was a gorgeous, sunny day, and we loved meeting fellow geeks! Can't wait to see what 2014 will bring for Synapse to Synapse, but THANK YOU for being part of it with me.
