Still if it's raining the sales could go up for wax paintings, it will prove they're waterproof and therefore suitable for bathroom walls? Poppy

I got very tired of watching them buy themselves a cushion I only ever do events that are indoors and have electricity and free demo space.

I did an event in a marquee last month, the person selling hand made soap had some of his stock melted it was so hot. I was at the back demonstrating Encaustic Art making bookmarks with the stylus. ( I had eelectricity as it was a village affair). I had this idea to mix the melted scented soap with encaustic wax and invented the scented wax bookmark. Thw smell of heated scented soap sent everyone buying the book marks and the scented soap also, The nam was impressed and wanted to buy a stylus and wax's so he could make gift tags to go with his soaps sets?. ( I gave him one of Barry's order forms)! Poppy
