Pre Christmas Craft fairs.

I'm finally getting around to catching up on some blogging and I'm determined to do more this year.
Did a couple of stalls before Christmas the first was with the local WI group at the end of November. As I had commitments with clients in the shop I sent Mum to man the stall for the first half of the fair I didn't get chance to take a picture of the stall but a good one appeared here  on the village website. (scroll down past the church fair and my stall is the one with the little red stockings and green gingham cloth.) At this fair lavender bags and tatted bookmarks sold well as nice little gifts.
The other fair I did was the annual event at the windmill, this is always a nice event with really community spirit, unfortunately the weather was rather rainy and windy so turnout was abit low.
However Alex came to help me set up and took some lovely shots of the stall.
 General shot of the stall, this year I was in the second room with a couple of the regular stall holding ladies, we had a good laugh despite the weather.
 Lovely shot of the quirky birds, on their new wooded tree, they display really well on this.
 Shot including felt decorations and tatted bookmarks.
Last shot showing pincushions, friendship teas and lavender bags, which again were a good seller at this event.

I'm really great full to Alex for taking these pictures for me and making the stall and stock look so lovely he really has got a nack with a camera.  More of his pictures can be seen here.





Again this stall managed to make it on the village website I'm the girl in the antlers.
So that's the pre Christmas stalls for Hannah's craft cottage, looking forward to the fair we will be doing this year, more about that soon.
