The two markets I did - Festive Fair at Museum of London and the Christmas Market in Epping were really successful for me and for the lovely people I shared stalls with. Rhiannon at Mabinogion Crafts brought along her gorgeous chunky necklaces to the Museum of London, which were a great success. Their USP is that as they're made with rather lush ribbons and wooden beads it's almost impossible to be allergic to them, plus the purples and autumn hues are really on-trend. The lovely ladies from Victoria Rose Crafts and Lilly Roses Luxuries were my partners in crime in Epping and we all had a great day - Shivs brought along her newest make, 11 day old Lilly-Rose, and when breaking for feeds she made sure to bring back tea for the rest of us! After a horrendous week of rain and wind we were really relieved to see some sunshine, but it was pretty cold. You can see me all bundled up in this picture - along with my other half and daughters who'd stopped by to see us. The picture is shamelessly stolen from Rose as my camera failed to work on both days....
The slinky jewellery set sold as separate pieces (and I can get the rings again so will be making more), and I was really pleased that the Swarovski crystal tree earrings all sold, as well as my favourite Ladybugs bracelets. I'm now having a small sale over on my Facebook page and all orders will come free with a pair of Christmas Present earrings. I'm now racing to catch up with orders for Christmas as the website has been really busy.
In between all this craftiness, I did manage a day out in London with a gang of girlfriends - our annual Christmas knees-up, which was lovely. This year we went to see Priscilla, Queen of the Desert at the Palace Theatre - an amazing show! Check out a video here...
