Saturday, April 28th, Davenport had their Venus Envy celebration. This is a festival that celebrates women in all aspects of art. This celebration was held at the Bucktown Center, the home of the future Daisy Jane Boutique.
I made up flyers announcing the new boutique that would be inside of the Bucktown Center. The Grand Opening of a one-of-a-kind children's boutique with unique gifts from around the world, drew a lot of attention. I made up a lot of flyers, and people were taking stacks to share with their friends.
The overall reaction has been phenomenal. I wanted to stay with all things being handmade, as to not disrupt the art feel at Bucktown. Other Bucktown artists and board members think that this is a wonderful idea and will draw a large crowd. There is no other retail settings like it in the area.
Everything is getting so exciting, and I will be making up advertisements to run in the newspapers the week of the Grand Opening. I have ordered small items from other artisians to use as gifts and free-with-purchase items. I will have excitement all day long for the Grand Opening, as it coninsides with the Bucktown Final Friday event for May.
Stay tuned for more info.

Sara, this all sounds wonderfully exciting! Wish I could be there for the grand opening!
It's such a unique concept - wish we had a store like that here in Sydney!
I'll be counting down the days with you - best of luck!
