A great big Thank You to the American Craft Council!

Last weekend's American Craft Show at St. Paul Rivercentre was a terrific experience! I met so many new people and got to have yet another terrific American Craft Council experience, showcasing my new line at their craft show. My booth looked mostly the same as in Baltimore, but I did add some new photo banners from the recent photoshoot with Jennifer Simonson. Don't they look great!?   (Here you can see me posing in front of one of the photos so that it looks like Katy's hand is patting me on the head. :) And have a look here at...

The retail section is what I’d like...

We did a photo shoot…and it was so much fun!

Check out the new slideshow on karinjacobson.com! When my marketing/PR specialist (and good friend) Rachael suggested to me that I should have photos for the website of my new collection on a real, live human, I thought, “Of course!” (facepalm) “why didn’t I do that sooner?”  She made the point that it would not only be pretty, but would help people see how the work sits on a body, and help them to envision it on themselves.  And the photos definitely achieved that.  But what I hadn’t suspected was how it would change the way that I look at the...
