Two Weekends of Craft for Christmas!

What a busy weekend! Despite the rain, Saturday brought a lot of people down to Town Street in Marple Bridge for this year's Winter Wonderland . It was a magical, festive day - but a bit soggy! Thank you to our parents for lending the gazeebo with sides! Phew! I thought I would show you some pics of how we displayed our products over the weekend. The event at Stockport Town Hal l was particularly good because Pure Radio were there to promote the event and had been advertising on their station. Events at the Town Hall always seems really well organised so if you are starting out and thinking about doing Craft Fairs this may be a good one for you. Anyone who is a regular to Craft and Gift Fairs will know that foot fall can fluctuate drastically throughout the year depending on many factors so to have this fair advertised on Pure Radio was a definite bonus. We met and spoke to so many lovely customers and browsers over the last two weekends and would like to say a big thank you...

Copyright Fiona Meakin 2011 I am in the thick of finishing off making my owls for this weekend's craft fairs and have bought some lovely display cases this morning for the stall on Sunday at Stockport Town Hall. I decided to just concentrate on selling the stock I have already made (some is pictured above), with some additions of smaller owls made with up-cycled retro/retro style fabrics as these have been popular. I have also made some crochet owl bag charms so I'm excited about seeing how they go down! I thought I would show you my Summer Dog Walk picture as I have finally finished it...it may make you feel warmer on this chilly day! Doesn't summer seem so far away? Fi and Me will be at the following fairs, along with our friends Rachel and RockleSnock Sat 3rd Dec 1pm - 4 pm : Wi...
