Traveling Show - A Love & Hate Relationship

~ A Traveling Show ~

An Era's Ambiance

Jewelry  

I have this Love & Hate relationship with art festivals and shows.

I get really excited around the month of May...I find that all of my Winter stock that has been stashed away comes ALIVE!  I start planning on how I am going to change my booth around to better display the new collections.  I am always trying to find better ways to showcase and accentuate my style.

But that comes with a price... 

    

 I always forget how much work goes into a show.  I think it really hits home when you are standing outside in blistering HOT weather and sweat is pouring down your back.  All the while you are trying to look professional and inviting!

But even while your swatting the bugs, your booth and merchandise will say it all...

I'm here because I have a SOUL PASSION and a GIFT that I would like to share with others.

 

The long hours of creating, pricing, tagging, boxing and traveling pays off...

Because when that customer smiles and feels beautiful after she tries her necklace on...

~ My day is complete. ~

I find that genuine compliments will linger. I am still thinking of what the woman said who was quite taken back from Sunday's booth..."This makes me want to cry." I asked her in a concerned manner, "Oh no, it makes you want to cry?" She added, "....because everything is sooooo beautiful!"

Vulnerable - My Life. My Story. My Path.

                                                                                                  Photography By Sudden Flower

Let me dive into this.  Let me take your hand and walk you softly through my mind.

I am a woman who has chosen a path of two desires.

~ An Artist & A Family ~

This decision was chosen in 2006.

My heart desired to have both because I could not choose one with out the other.

I was determined to have a family while I pursued my art career.

Co-Exist * Balance * Harmonize

This comes with great patience and sacrifice for each moment is a lesson.

A decision on what is fair, what is responsible and what is important.

I can only allow my desires to melt into one and become whole with my creation.

My Life.  My Story  My Path.

Silence

By Terah Ware

Now that I sit in silence with no distractions or pursuits, my mind 

wonders back to this path that I always choose. 

An art teacher, a mother, an artist, a sister, a sweet heart, a 

woman, a daughter, a caregiver. 

I feel these roles daily in my mind and caress their importance 

with each stride.

  One may be heavier or tip me off balance, but I will always carry 

each one in my silence.

Southern Ember

The Southern Ember Necklace

~ SOLD ~

Sometimes I have this desire to travel South.  Maybe it is the history that appeals to me.  Most likely the smell, the colors and beautiful textures of Southern Ember...the light from the Southern sunrise that cascades upon the land.
