Title: Market today
Post by: corrie on November 29, 2009, 09:13:19 PM
Just thought I'd share a pic of my stall today. My best day ever! Was so cold, maybe 4 degrees all day but the good folks of Helensburgh were out in force and ready to part with their cash  ;D (wish I had had my new banner but it's not come yet  ???)
Got fairs fri, sat & sun next week so got to get busy in the kitchen! (but not tonight)

C, I love the monotone look (the blues look fab) it is so eyecatching.  A well deserved 'best day ever' but poor you, I bet it took ages to warm up.  Sounds like you are going to be a busy lady for the next few days  (:hug:)

Woo hoo!!!  For the BEST DAY EVER!!!   :woohoo:

Thought we hadn't seen you for a bit! Great work, stall looks lovely as usual, bet you froze your bits off tho!  :mwaha: Best ever is fantastic, you must be buzzing. I'm busy making up gift boxes for upcoming fairs, hoping the good people of leeds and harrogate take a leaf out of the helensborough book! x

Thanks girls  ;D
I'm not used to a big table like this, so it was a first for me.
I had a good mix of sales, best seller by far was my wee £10 boxes in rose & lavender, sold a load of those but this time people are starting to get my Scottish inspired ranges and bought both individual products and gift sets, and of course soap did pretty well too.
I've just had a quick bath to warm dem old bones  ;)

It looks freezing and I hope you stayed ages in the bath warming through.

I have to admit I got a banner made up in case I do think of doing a stall.. the thought alone makes me panic!!!

Great looking stall indeed!

Yup - there's a lot of difference between a market stall and an average craft-fair table.
