Yesterday at the markets was fun! I got a lot of great feedback and comments by the market goers, saying how lovely/cute my things were. The brooches and hair clips were the biggest sellers. I loved seeing the little girls choosing which one they wanted and then getting the money out of their little handbags. Very sweet.
A lady from the Sunday Telegraph even took some pictures of my bird mobiles, so I will be over the moon if they end up in the paper. I'll need to keep my eye out for them!
I managed to take a few photos of the stall. You can see my mum manning the stall. A big thanks to her for helping out all day. We hung all the birds from the umbrella, they looked fantastic all spinning around. The first one to sell was my favourite, which I was considering keeping for Finlay. Shame I didn't get a photo of it.
The Verdict: It was great fun, but as the markets are still new, not many people know they are there. It was pretty quiet so I'm not sure if I will go again next month or look for a different market. They are doing a lot more to promote them, so we'll see. I am definitely going to get an online store set up though.
