I did my first Craft Xmas fayre

One end of my table

Then there was a spare so used the other to display more!
Well my first first christmas fair was ok, i learnt that its probably best to sell maybe 2-3 different things rather than lots of mish mash handmade stuff as I felt it looked a little messy, probably my display techinques are not great, but im going to make myself a few stands to make the things look even more professional ready for the Yeovil Craft fair at Abby Manor Barn. 21st November. Come along to see how I've improved my set up. But everyone was friendly and feel really pleased that I did it. Well done me! And i didn't make loads of money but came home in profit even after spending some money (naughty!)

Frustration!

I've spent ages uploading my pictures in a way that I can display all of the wooden sentiments on one page so i do not have to spent hours uploading each one onto my blog and it wont work! Sobs! I need to learn a few more tricks I think.
Any hoo I've managed to get everything prepared now for sunday and Im ready to go to the fair yay!

Millie and I made some things from Plastiroc (clay)
....So I had to upload just one of each to show you, I really wanted the 20 in one picture I think I will have to seek some advice on how to do it. Millie and I made some bits from a meduim called Plastiroc this morning whilst baby Roo was sleeping we made a tortoise, a house and some butterflies so we can make them into a mobile when they are dry. I love crafting with the children they are so free in what they do as they have no preconceptions. I wish I was like that in my ideas.
