Langton Summer fete

Had a stall at a local summer fete, I've done a couple of Christmas ones here but not tried a summer one, was looking forward to it as the Christmas ones had always been nice and the people who run them very friendly.
We set off in the morning car packed with gazebo, tables and plenty of lovely stock in the pouring rain.

Picked a spot on the field and started to set up, not long after getting the tables arranged realized the gazebo was not as waterproof as we may have liked. So everything back in the car and wait for it to stop. Luckily it did and we managed to set up the stall with a mixture of crafts and rustic items from the shop.

I was rather please with the layout I like how the wood crates gave height and interest while adding to the look. I'm hoping to add another table to the layout next time I do a gazebo stall. I think this will help bring people in as I can put it at right angles to the main table and stop everything seeming so far back.








At the fete there was also something I hadn't seem before, chicken racing, they have five chickens each with a colour and people bet on which one would win all the names of the people who bet on the winning chicken were then placed in a draw for the prize. It was rather fun and exciting even if my chosen chuck went backwards.

One of the new items on my stall this time was my crochet flower brooches which I displayed on luggage tags. Which I think worked well.

Looking forward to the next one I'm doing Partney Fair on Saturday the 9th of July.
