Saponification...it's just good clean fun!

.... I did my first ever stall today, and promised you pictures. Guess what...I forgot to take my camera  hide I know, I know, I'm a klutz! That's not all I forgot to take either - I only went and left my Christmas soaps behind  Embarrassed Honestly, I'm surprised I even got myself there!

Anyhoo...it was GREAT Happy Bounce I didn't make loads of money - about £120 + lunch for the two of us (OH came too) + a wooden domino set off the toy stall next to me swapped for soap. The stall cost £59 though out of that, but I'm still very happy because people like my soap...they do, they really do!! And loads of people took my card and a lady with a shop in the town is going to contact me as she's interested in buying soap from me to stock in her shop.

Anyway, I'm home now and thawing out, don't think I've ever been as cold in my entire life - even the petting donkeys didn't turn up as the owners decided that it was too cold for them  Huh? Just opened my emails and found three more orders to post tomorrow...keep 'em coming is what I say  Smiley

Well done Lilli, it's a great feeling to sell your own stuff and even better that a shop wants it.

Glad you are pleased with sales and event. Now, all you have to do is recreate the exact stall set up (at home) and take da pics - surely it's not too much to ask?? Muttley
