good afternoon all.well i am back from the fair and i`m happy to report that i did better this time.i`ll never be able to retire but i did better than my 1st one and i have booked for the feburary one.
i sold more cards this time and i sold 1 candle.lol and that was to my mum, thanks mum and also a big thanks to dawn (who i know visits my blog) for buying some cards too.i took some cards today that weren`t sealed in poly bags and those are the ones that people bought.i also had no prices on so people had to ask this time too and that seems to have sold them better.
right i need to go and tackle a huge ironing pile now or big man will be wearing his pj`s to school.
catch you all later ;D
luv coops xxx

Glad you sold some, i did one at christmas and didn't sell a thing!
Well done Coops,it is only going to get better now that you are out there...[good for Mum too]...I buy my bags longer than normal, so I can slide my card in open,then when people pick up they can open and read the inside, or look, with the card getting greasy..just a thought.
Luv CHRISSYxx
Hi hun
good old mum, glad you sold some cards hun, use to do craft fairs many years ago with me cross stitch,sue,x
Glad the sale went well. Can't believe the candles didn't sell. They are fabulous. Debs xx
congrats for your fair Ive done a few and a few times have come away without selling a single card, very disheartening then other times manage to sell a few cards then feel as though its all worth while. I find people dont like the idea of spending £2.00 on a card
Hi Coops, I am so pleased you sold more this time and I'm sure it will get better and better each one you do :) Good Luck with the ironing!I have a huge pile too :(
Big Hugs, Teresa x
Congrates to a good day! Idk why I can't get myself to do that. I really want to try but, afraid that they won't sell, lol.
Tons of Hugs, Dangina
