Well next month I have 2 craft stalls. The first is at a village called Redmile on Sat 1st Nov and the second is at Belton Woods Hotel near Grantham on Sun 30th Nov.

I have been busy making jewellery and glass painted items to sell. Matt is not happy with me at the moment though cos they are currently all over the house.

I really enjoy doing craft stalls cos I then get an idea of what people think of my stuff

So if any one is about on these days come along.

Oooo! Sounds like you've been a very busy lady indeed!

I loved the few piccies of your work that you posted a while back.... I expect you'll make a good few sales on those 2 days!!

Who knows, Grantham's only just up the road from me!

Wow, that sounds very industrious. My mum makes jewellery and I'm supposed to sell it at Tim's shows but I never get around to it what with a baby and all.

I never saw piccies of your jewellery before, can you post them again?

Good luck with the stalls, it sounds like fun. If I was nearer I'd come along and have a look.

You'll have to post some piccies.

Oh, your work sounds brilliant ~ only a shame that Grantham is too far away from me to be able to visit..

Do post some pics of your work as I've never been lucky enough to see your items from previous posts etc?

Thanks.. and hugs, Karen-x

How did the one on the 1st go Karen?
Did you enjoy it?

My stall on the 1st wan't too bad. I hope that the one on the 30th will be better as it is in a big hotel.

I have some pics of my stuff on my home PC. Will have to resize them and post them for you.

Well I did quite well at my stall last sunday. So I'm chuffed.

Roll on the next Craft Fair

Well done! I remember years ago my mum started going to a craft fair and the first few times were a bit slow but it did build up and eventually she was able to support us financially on just the craft work. I always remember her going up to new stall holders and telling them to stick it out as people eventually get to know you and will come back time and time again.

Are you handing out flyers with your details, so that people can contact you in between fairs?
