Excited But Scared!
Posted by Bev Darby, Rock n Spheres on 17th Oct 2017
I am so excited!!!!! Yesterday I received an email from the Tucson Gem and Mineral Society stating I have been approved to participate in the 2018 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show! This is a really big step for me. There are 250 dealers that participate in this show!
Now the scary part.... there are 250 dealers that participate in this show!!!!!!! I still feel that I am pretty small fish and even though my spheres are varied in materials, do I have enough inventory and quality to do this? In the request to be considered, I was required to provide photos of my display, close up photos of my work and my bio. I think they did like what they saw. I know of individuals that have been trying to get in for 4 years and are frequently published in Lapidary Journal. Maybe not that many sphere makers?
So now I need to really get moving. I see Amazonite, Bumble Bee, Charoite, and maybe more Wingate Pass Plume.
Thanks for reading.......
