Wragby Show and country fayre

On Sunday the 4th of September we attended Wagby Show and country fayre this was the first time we had attended this event and it is abit further afield for us. This was a craft marquee event which makes a nice change from having to set up the event shelter. The show had many attractions. Including Cattle, sheep, and poultry, equine events, dog show, displays in the main ring and traditional produce show.  

The day had an early start, the information said the show started at 9am with the show ground being open for setting up from 6am, I didn't wish to be late and make the organizers think I wasn't coming or have trouble getting on to a busy show ground so we arrived in good time around 7am, surprised to find only one other exhibitor in the marquee who had had the same idea. this gave us plenty of time and space to get set up before most of the others arrived at around 8am. Tables were provided and space was a little tight compared with our normal layout but I think in the end the stall looked good.

 The candle jars were sporting new Hannah's Craft Cottage labels as I try to include abit more branding on the stand. These dozen pretty patterned tealights presented in a clip top jar are a lovely present, great for thank-yous, new home or any occasion. I hope they will sell well in the run up to Christmas. Only £4.99 each.

The new felt toadstool and oak leaf ornaments looking good on the Shepard crook display stands.I sold some of each of these which I was pleased with as well as a good selection of other items.  I heard someone say afterwards that visitor numbers were abit down on last year this may have been due to the slightly damp weather, and I personally thought that the marquee could have done with some more signage to say what was inside but over all we were pleased with the day and will be looking to attend next year.


Our next stall weather permitting is Gunby hall apple day on Sunday the 9th of October. Where we will be starting to display some of our Christmas items.
