Pitchfork

This past weekend I participated in Pitchfork Music Festival with Coterie Chicago. It was my first show of the year. I was excited to test out my new displays and get back into the groove. But, that feeling soon changed when the rain, heat, and lack of customers broke me down.

I salvaged the weekend by meeting some awesome people and some retail therapy. I highly enjoyed the artwork and cards by Laura Berger and Essimar. Margie from Red-Belly hooked me up with an awesome belt pouch. I got my hubby really nice iphone case from Bare Tree too! There was so much talent at the show I was honored to be in their company.

As for the displays, they are currently undergoing a major overhaul. I am glad I was able to test them out to see what worked and what didn't. I decided I needed a table and a clothes rack. I will transform the frames from the displays into those items. I also want a new logo sign. I found an amazing shop on Etsy called Oh Dier that make the most amazing signs so I will be contacting them to do something for me.

So. Even with the heat, rain and lack of sales, I had an awesome time at Pitchfork. It was an amazing experience.
