I did tours for several years, mostly as a guest in other artisan houses, but for a few years, I was able to open my own home and turn our livingroom into a 'studio'.
In the fall, people come here in droves. We all do very well in our sales, but it is a well-known tour, been going over 13 years now and has a reputation for quality crafts.
Here's a few pics I took in our own home, in 2006 and 2007.
I took this pic from upstairs looking down. People entered through the screened porch, and in through those patio doors, then exited via our front door.
This shows the front door:
and my hubby is making last-minute adjustments before anyone shows up. You can see our upper hall in this pic, and the narrowness of this room....but it works!
my soap display, close view: (btw if you want to make these trays, we show how on our SoapMaker site, in the 'extras' menu.
This year I had a guest artisan, a jewelry maker. You can see the beautiful autumn colors out this window....another reason people flock from the city on this weekend every year.
