It's been a busy few weeks as the blacksmiths wife. Gavin had two back-to-back art shows : Manly Mart in Lakewood, Ohio and the Shaker Heights Historical Society Gracious Gardens fest.
Both shows were first year shows and we took a chance on both by not applying to a few of this standard shows this summer. It's important to expand your clientele and reach out to different niche markets and we decided this summer is the time to do it!
We had a fantastic time at both shows, sold product and receive lots of leads for custom iron work. Exciting!
