I did it.
I survived.
My first market.
That is me doing a happy dance! It was a great night - stinking hot - but fabulous weather for our lovely school twilight craft market. I was overwhelmed by all of the support MooBeeTees received from the children and parents - it reinforced why I spend hours surrounded by fabric and up to my ears in ideas!
Now, keep in mind that I don't yet have all of the hard core market gear - you know, pop up canopies, trestle tables, signage, etc. In fact one of the dads from the Fathers Club took pity on MooBeeGran and I and loaned us an umbrella - bless! Here's a picture of the Hamster carefully looking after the stall:
Note my subtle nod to Christmas - just in case those of you in colder climates think I'm doing this in June!
It was only little, but it gave me a taste of what I could become addicted to - the monthly market. For those of you who encouraged me - thanks! This market paid for more stock - the next market might get me an umbrella!!!
Cheers!!
Congratulations on your first market! Definately invest in shade cover next - not fun getting sunburnt. Your little stall looked good :D
ReplyDeleteYay - well done on your first market. I have my first Solo market coming up soon and I still need to get a shade cover!! Had a laugh at you getting MooBeeGran to do some crochet as I have asked my Gran to get clicking on the needles to add some scarves , hats to fill up my stall space too..
ReplyDeleteThanks gals! Crochet - I'm telling you, it was huge!!
ReplyDeleteWish I could have been there! It all looks AWESOME!
