A Little Snag........Don't Panic!

**The Spark organizers have been made aware of this and they will be helping to spread the word via the official Spark Blog this week.

***Some folks are going to try to bring their fixative in their checked bag so if you want to give it a try go for it.  Just be sure you check your bag before heading out of the airport so you know if you have to stop and do some shopping ha!

OK, So I did some digging around and asking and with the help of the folks at Krylon they directed me to a link that states that no flammable items (excluding personal toiletries) can be checked in a bag or taken onboard in the cabin.  So, this simply means that if you are flying into Utah that you will need to make your way to a local craft store to pick up the Workable Fixative.  Or take your chances and hope that if you do put it in your checked bag that it doesn't get removed.





PLEASE, Please don't start panicking OK, and PLEASE, PLEASE let's not start bothering the ladies putting Spark together about this.  I am going to put my "momma hat" on and simply say that we are all big girls and we can figure this out on our own.  Again, they have been made aware of this and they will also be helping to spread the word.  So, for now how about I just share the link that states the info and I will be back with some store names and addresses for you to put on your list to find once you get there. 

Here is the link that states what can't be on a plane in cabin or in a checked bag.

Now, I know not everyone will have a rental car but it's all good, it will all work out :)  If some of the local ladies offer to help out just please keep in mind that they can only do so much to go and purchase the product with their own money.  Help is always FABULOUS but we don't want to overwhelm anyone or start giving others direction on how they should help us out.  I bet that a couple people could actually share a can's worth of product. Surely we won't need a full can for ourselves but who knows.

I suggest using the zip code to the Hotel you are staying at to help you google nearby stores.  Any of you who gather this type of info please leave it in the comments section and I will update this post with it tonight when I get home from work. Yep, I work a full time job, booooo.  Ha!

Remember, this is going to be a fabulous trip and little snags such as this won't ruin it for us, I promise! So, no stressing allowed.

Here are some Michael and Hobby Lobby's that are on the way to towards the venue and hotel near the Salt Lake City area.  I suggest you call ahead to find out if they have it before you drive all over town looking though ;)
