My first view of Estrella! Cos I got there before merchant check in opened, & then it got put off another half hour or so because the poor merchant coordinator had to rearrange some booths last minute. You could not PAY me to do that job.
But we got in soon enough, & then it was time to Set Up the Things.
This is the only pic I took during setup itself, because I was … setting up. But I wanted to show off my spot. I was cranky about being right next to the portacastles for approximately point 3 seconds until I remembered that I have a hand washing station.
Also check out how good Tyrava looks! (With bonus Hades off to the right beside the van. Later that day he climbed into the neighbor’s car & fell asleep.)
& presenting — the completed booth! It’s an ez-up, but at least it’s a decorated ez-up?
(I’m honestly really happy with how it came out, but I am ALSO really looking forward to being able to put up the booth I have in planning.)
(See also: bonus Hades on the cat bed in the back of the booth.)
Booth closeup, in which I am very pleased about how the new rug & the hanging on the back wall really dress things up:
Right side (I believe Hades was having a wash):
Left side, complete with pretty wall-dangly-fabric-scraps-thing:
All ready to go!
This was posted originally to my Patreon, a little over a week ago.
If you want to see these posts sooner, & not incidentally help support me & my cats in our travels & such, the way to do that is to sign up as one of my Patrons for as little as a buck a month.
I’d REALLY like that.
