Well the expo was much busier today but still very quiet.
It has been great for the visitors because there is no problem getting to see all of the wonderful booths and being able to talk with all of the exhibitors. There has been some great bargains over the weekend including our own. Our Expo special is for a free fashion necklace with every purchase of $100 or more and our fashion necklaces have been very popular.
Our excitement for the day was when the Young Divas fell in love with my dichroic work and were admiring the sterling silver. Our booth was buzzing with people getting the girls autographs and photos… but it didn’t take long before they were whisked away!
Mum and I were lucky enough to get a sneak preview as we turned up early this morning and had our very own concert while the girls were rehearsing and they sounded fantastic.
Tomorrow will be a great day with Natalie Bassingwaighte and loads more people not wanting to miss out on the great deals from the exhibitors. Maeve is cooking up a storm in the celebrity kitchen and the catwalk is busy with fashion parades. There are also some great prize giveaways for tomorrow.
We hope to see you there!

Kylie, your stand looks amazing and your jewellery is gorgeous – no wonder the Young Dvias loved it! Good luck for the rest of the expo!
Sorry to hear that the expo was quiet – it is one of those things where you tend to put in a lot of time and effort (not to mention money) and you hope it all pays off. At least it is advertising and word of mouth but hopefully you recoup some costs from the event.
Thanks Melinda, A lot of work went into it so it was rewarding just to see it all come together.
You are definitely right Michelle about the effort that goes in to an expo behind the scenes but it is fantastic to have that face to face contact that I just don’t get as an online business. It is wonderful to see how excited some people get when they find a gorgeous piece of jewellery and it was a real highlight to be able to provide a gorgeous bridal headpiece to a lady getting married and it was just what she was looking for. That in itself was extremely rewaring as I have just started the bridal range and I know that when you are getting married you want something that is just right for your special day!
