Swap meet

I have not gotten your email yet about Saturday's swap meet. Perhaps you can resend it? I'm at mmh@mmhansen.com.

You can see my freeform crochet capelets and neck wear at www.mmhansen.com under crochet to wear. Have photos of 30 or 40 pieces on the site.

Really looking forward to this weekend. Mary Margaret

Check your email!

Hi Mary Margaret!

I just sent you (and all of the swap meet sellers) an email about the swap meet.

Swap Meet - can I share a table?

Mary Margaret Hansen — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 17:05:59 -0500

When we check into the conference, can I find out if there's a part of a table at the swap meet that I can share? I make freeform crochet capelets and neck pieces with hand dyed wool and cotton yarns. Looking forward to seeing everyone's things.

Swap Meet Tables

I'd love to participate in selling at the swap meet and have freeform crochet neckwear. Most are made with hand dyed cottons and wool yarns. I hope there is part of a table I can share. Photos of the pieces are on my website: mmhansen.com.

Please let me know if I should be packing an assortment to bring to Blog Her.

Late but present

momomatic — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 13:56:11 -0500

If you don't mind me coming late I would love to do it. Maybe I can find someone willing to set up the goods for me in exchange for some free jewelry. Then I'll just need to hoof it over as fast as I can.

Thanks for being so flexible!!

Added!

Only if you're sure...

KristySF — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 13:46:59 -0500

You could always just come late to set-up, if we knew ahead of time that would be the case?

Let me know!

Share With Minnie?

Shannon Des Roches Rosa — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 11:15:23 -0500

I would be more than happy to share with Minnie, seeing as she is one of the authors featured in Can I Sit With You?, and if that leaves more space open. Plus I like her a lot.

Already a pain in your crafty behind

I really want to do this - but just realized that the session I'm a panelist in ends at noon. I don't think I can hightail it back and set up the table within 15 minutes.

I'm going to have to bow out and give up my space to someone that's less crunched. Darn it.

Are you an artist, crafter, writer, DIY-er (or many of the above) looking to sell your BlogHerrific wares? Come sign up for the BlogHer '08 Swap Meet! Interested in purchasing some homemade goodies? Please stop by.

If you're not sure what the Swap Meet is all about, read Jen's fabulous Call for Artists here. Then get the details below...

When: Saturday, July 19

During lunch, from 12:15 - 1:45 PM (following the Crafts/DIY meet-up)

Where: Olympic Room

Westin St. Francis, Second Floor

Who: Open to all BlogHer attendees who would like to sell or buy items.

How to Sign Up:

If you are interested in selling items at BlogHer's Swap Meet, just leave a comment below. We are setting up a room with TEN spaces (each space is a 6x3' table, draped with white linen). If you wish to share a table with someone, please indicate so in your comment -- the table can accommodate up to three chairs.

Space is limited to ten tables, which will be given on a first-come, first-served basis!

Each seller will be responsible for working out payment with buyers. While good old-fashioned cash-boxes are probably easiest, there will be wifi in the room, so if you accept online payment and have a laptop, options such as PayPal could work for you as well.

Each seller will be responsible for getting her wares to the Swap Meet, setting up, and closing up. The room will be open for set-up at 11:45 a.m.

Note: The Westin St. Francis cannot store your items! If you are staying at the hotel, you may ship your items to your room, but they must arrive within one day of your arrival. (And please track your packages!) The hotel does not have a warehouse for keeping shipments and can't be responsible for boxes that arrive without a specific guest room to send them to.

You must be a registered attendee to sign up to be a Swap Meet seller.

So...who's in?!?!
