Okay, Here's how this is going to work
I'm starting this list.
If you have something to add to it, copy MY list, ADD your item(s) to
the BOTTOM, and post it. Then the next person who adds to the list
copies THAT list, and adds their items to the bottom - and so on.
Clear as mud? By the time this is finished, we should have a complete list
on the last post. Note: I'm NOT adding stuff like "snacks", since there are
plenty of local stores you can buy snacks at. This is a "bring from home" list.
Here goes:
1. Clothing
2. Didy or boro glasses
3. Tools for classes (see list of classes for the tools you need)
4. Pills/vitamins
5. pajamas for pajama jam
6. Trade beads (I bring about 60)
7. Vendor gifts (2 beads usually)
8. Gift item for auction
9. Money for auction (checkbook/cash)
10. Closed toed shoes
11. notarized letter
12. cell phone AND charger
13. bathing suit (for hotel pool/jacuzzi)
14. refillable water bottle
15. mask for classes using frit
16. light jacket (it can get chilly)
17. address book to get info from new friends
18. notebook and pens
19. directions to event
20. Extra suitcase for purchases (no, I am NOT kidding about this one.
Usually, I throw a zipper duffel bag in, and my clothes go in there on the
return journey, leaving my suitcase free for purchases AND the stuff I make
during the event. You'll be surprised how much room this stuff takes up).
21. Glass rod storage travel container (these are AWESOME) Here's some links to tubes that can work:

22. spray bottle of lysol (used for spraying surfaces and fixtures in your hotel
room/condo. It sucks to catch a cold from the last guest. Learned this trick
from a world traveler friend of mine).
23. Basic first aid kit.
Burn cream, band aids, something to help you sleep,
allergy meds, flu meds (in case), cough meds, headache meds, lavender oil.
24. Makeup, shampoo, toiletry stuff
