Well it has already come round and I will be at Alton again tomorrow, so once more I am living in total chaos. I have still to add price tags to all the new things I have been making and there are still a few unfinished bits that may or may not get finished today…
Have just made an extremely long list of all the stuff I need to take… probably forgotten something though and will be adding more to it throughout the day.
I mananged to update my trellis the other week with chicken wire and a plain cream fabric – the staple gun queen! Who needs a man when you have a staple gun and a pair of wire cutters…. Having said that putting the gazebo up and down is another matter!! Have just added camera to my list of things to take so I can get a pic while I am there.. knew I would be adding things all day!!
It would be great to see you if you are in the area – come over and say hi!!
Well I managed to get through the trauma of doing a craft market and putting up a gazebo… not sure why I stress so much but there you go!! As I was being a bit ’special’ some nice people helped…
Was very pleased with the way it went – sold quite a few things and will now be doing October, November and December – maybe I won’t stress so much next time!! Having said that I am sure I will…
I took a photo of my stall but next time will be a bit different… someone suggested putting chicken wire on there and jute or something similar behind – when I tested it out and took photos my plain cream curtains were the background – slightly different from a shop window!!
Have spent today updating the website – still only half way there but there is still quite a lot of new stuff. Maybe I will be able to get a lot of photos done tomorrow and get the rest of the website updated!!
Lots of finished products just waiting for a nice sunny day so I can get some decent photos and add them to Rustic Gifts … every time I think its going to be a nice day I look out five minutes later and its pouring with rain!! Very boring! At the moment it is looking good for today so hopefully by this evening I will have lots of photos …then I just have to edit them and add them to the website.
You can always trust a dog to be exactly where you don’t want it to be… she was no where in sight when I started spraying the bird houses – turn my back for 5 minutes and she has appeared!!
I did manage to finish painting them eventually and they have now been decorated. Just need to get some photos of them so they can go on the website….
