craft spectacular

For a few years I have wanted to start screen printing and the past few months it has become an obsession. Even more so now that I finally have a screen printing kit.
I have also fallen deeply in love with Blick's art supply store in Rosedale. I didn't take many art classes in college. The one I did take, Art fundamentals (Art for the mentals) was amazing! My teacher was a sculptor and he let us listen to Bjork and Radiohead while we worked (PERFECT!)
I wish I did take more art classes - to me, that isn't homework or even work!
Maybe I missed my true calling or maybe I can finally catch up to it.
The small business I have with my mother (vicktoots.etsy.com) is beginning to gain speed and acquire more products and we are hoping to show at our first craft fair at the end of January. I am taking this pretty seriously - I know how to package things and make things pretty to sell. My mom is very good and pumping products out and hopefully now with my screen printing kit, I will be contributing more also. Justifying $70 for 500 professionally done hangtags to my mom was not easy - but she will love them when they come in!
