August Goals

Oops. Looks like I fell off the wagon again with keeping track of goals. I didn't post any June or July goals, but I'm happy to say I completed all but two of my May goals, including the much overdue cleaning of my craft room (you can read all about the clean-up and see picture proof that the deed is done). And I'm happy to report that the space is still clean!

Fall is almost here (yay! And hurry up already, please), which means the busy holiday season is right around the corner. So I have quite a lot to accomplish this month:

1. Submit application for the Craftland Show. Deadline: August 31.
   This is a month-long holiday sale in Providence, RI, held in a cute little shop of the same name.


2. Submit application for No Coast. Deadline: August 31.
   The uber-awesome annual Minneapolis craft show that I've had the pleasure of vending at for the past 4 years. Here's hoping this will be my 5th!


3. Finish three zombie plushies and submit to Stuffed Magazine. Deadline: August 15.
   I've wanted to submit some of my plush to this magazine since it's debut, but never seem to get around to it. I plan to send three zombies—a frog, a giraffe, and a yeti—along with their normal counterparts. Wish me luck in getting them published!


4. Finish my pieces for Plush You! LA. Deadline: August 24.
   I'm super excited to be participating in both the LA and Seattle locations this year. If you live in the LA area, be sure to check out the show August 26-September 19 at Munky King.
   It took me a while to decide what to make for the LA show, but I've finally settled on a theme. Hint: it involves mustaches. I will be starting on this project in earnest this weekend, but here's a little teaser to whet your appetite.

I better get crackin'!
