Strawberry Festival, June 19, 11a - 5p

Well, I guess the balls are rolling. I submitted my registration application to reserve my space last week. It was mailed past the deadline but I haven't heard anything yet so I am gonna try and stay positive and motivated and hope for the best. I have already ordered the supplies to make the items I plan to take. Ouch! The money I spent on supplies hurt my pockets really bad but as the old saying goes, "you have to spend money to make money."


The Strawberry Festival will be held at the Burtner House in Natrona Height about 20 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh. I have had trouble finding out what is exactly involve. The registration stated that period attire could be worn which suggests that people will be dress like pilgrims or something. But I haven't found any information that confirms so I will just try to dress appropriately. So far I have planned to take soy candles and handmade soap. Just keeping it simple, right now.


I chose 5 strawberry scents and 3 of them will be used in the soaps. (* - candles and soaps will be in these scents0

• Strawberries n Cream*
• Strawberry Shortcake
• Just Strawberry*
• Strawberry Cheesecake*, and
• Strawberry Jam

Now, I have a lot of work to do in a little amount of time. My challenge will be to stay focused and motivated.
