My name is Heather, I like to make things. I have been crafting since I was seven years old, possibly sooner, when I made caterpillar magnets with Grandma Smolarsky who lived across the street. When I cracked 3, maybe even 4 ribs, playing roller derby last August, I felt an emptiness. I filled this void by deciding to open my own accessory shop. Ala, To The 9s.
To The 9s is based on the old-fashioned philosophy of being "dressed to the nines" in any situation. Whether you are attending a play, an art opening, the symphony, going out for a night on the town, or even just making an appearance at a casual picnic, you should always look your best. We specialize in handmade accessories, many made with vintage components.
My friend Sylvia of Luxe Living and I were vendors at Garland High School's 11th Annual Craft Fair yesterday. It was great to see my former students and many of their parents and I really enjoyed hanging out with Sylvia. However, out of the 4 craft fairs I have done so far, this was the least profitable. I don't know if it is the economy or if we were simply too cool for school... Sylvia's booth look great, this was her first time out. My booth is getting better I think, I still have a ways to go. Our husband's stopped by with my daughter and she had a good time sitting at my table.
Your stuff looks really good! School shows are the least profitable ones I've done. I don't plan to do any more unless sometimes comes up that I can't refuse.

Your pictures are just great and your booth looks very nice. Craft Fairs, especially at schools are always iffy...But craft fairs are fun to do....
