A few years ago, when I started to enter some photos in
shows and exhibits, my aunt Mary suggested that I take some of my photos to a shop
in Brackney PA. The shop - Sea Hag Soaps& Art Mercantile. I thought I would
give it a try and so I sent the owner, Colleen Kane, an email with a few sample
pictures attached. She liked the photos,
and was willing to try to sell some, but indicated that for whatever reason she
had a difficult time selling photography in her shop. She asked that I get back to her in couple of
weeks after some big event they were getting ready for. I thanked her, got involved in other things,
and never followed up.
Until this July. I emailed
Colleen again and asked if she again would be willing to take a look at some
photos and/or the greeting cards that I have been making from the photos. She would look at them, and indicated that
they do quite well with greeting cards.
So on the 4th of July I left some sample cards with aunt Mary
to show Colleen. Mary left them with
Colleen to look at when she had a chance.
I went to Binghamton within a week of the drop-off, and a number of the
cards had already sold! Colleen was very
gracious during visit, took more cards that I brought with me, and had ordered
some more! Hurray for the Sea Hag! So if you have a chance, visit the store, or
visit them online. And look for my
cards.
