Not too long ago, I talked about how monotonous life can be. As a recommended release for those who are experiencing the repetitive grind of life, I suggested going back to your roots. I suggested indulging yourself in whatever craft you used to enjoy (or even think you would enjoy) as a kid. I said it was a good idea to practice your crafts once again; to be back to your level of skill before, or even to surpass it.
Even though I acknowledge that you may feel that you're not competent or skilled enough to show anyone your finished products, I can't stress enough that you will eventually want to show your crafts to the world. Start small; maybe show your pieces to a supportive spouse or close relatives. That's all well and good, as they'll provide positive feedback that will boost your confidence levels and improve your crafts.
However, you will eventually have to widen your circle of appreciators. The best criticisms come from people whom you've never met before. Going through a trial by fire is something most artisans will have to go through. Hearing hard, but true, flaws in your work will let you identify what improvements are needed.
How is this done? Admittedly, it'll be harder to pull off if you've never done anything like this before, but this is what these articles are for. In any case, if you are reading this, then you probably have easy access to the Internet. The rest will be easy, if you just put your mind to it.
Just go online and search the Internet for various craft fairs and festivals schedules around Delaware. You will be directed to websites that keep a listing of all available craft shows, and you'll simply just pick the ones closest to your current location. Contact the event organizers and come up with the best-packaged deals for booths. - 15246
