In the past two year, I have found that having a child has
totally changed my view on art. I no
longer yearn to paint for hours in a studio or spend my afternoons in solitude
throwing on a potter's wheel. Now my life revolves around my Charlie and I am
consumed with making art with him and for him.
Pintrest and other blogs have been inspirational for me and give me so
many ideas that I want to "pay it forward" and share our artistic
adventures with others. After all, I am
an artist, art teacher, crafter, but most importantly a Mom.
I started my own little pet project of a company called Big
C and Me which is entirely dedicated to promoting family engagement and
exposing children to various art mediums.
That means having kids paint, cut, glue, and create things! Everything I do is success based to build young
confidence and is success based.
Please steal my ideas!
I am putting them on my blog and going to craft fairs to promote the
arts with children. If you want to buy a
kit, great! Really this is more about fitting a niche that I love and we will
see where it takes me.
I would love to get into providing materials for Birthday
Parties, family get-togethers, Pinterest Parties, or a Girls’ Night In where we
create something. Basically, I want to be that “go-to crafty friend” who can
help facilitate your artsy side. Who
knows where Big C and Me will go, but I have to give it a try because it makes
me happy and fulfills that part of me that yearns to promote the arts with all
children.
With all that said, I have my first craft show on Sunday,
November 3 at Southside High School in Elmira from 10-4. If you are in the area
or stopping by the show, please stop by and support me (I am a bit
nervous). Below are some of the things I
will have for sale.

Your concept is great! I was wondering if you would be interested in coming in for a Christmas Bazaar and Craft Show on December 14th from10-4 inside the Victory Highway Galleria of Shops, in Painted Post, NY. I can email the form to you if you want. Also, I don't know if this is something else you may be interested in, but on November 23rd, we are also having a Ladies Night event. We are looking for any vendors that appeal to women, let them have fun, shop, and have Glamour shots done by our photographer. Please let me know if you would like to attend either or both of these events. Thank you, Tanya Roche Event Planner for the Victory Highway Galleria of Shops
