Well the time has arrived, Marlay Craft Fair is taking place this weekend from 23-25 November 2012.
I have been working flat out to make stock for this fair, it's the first time participating in a large fair. A bit of "running around like a headless chicken" was happening in my house. The kids have been very patient with Mummy spending a lot of spare time working on items.
At the moment I am trying to work out how to display everything, I have baskets, a little shelf, cardbook boxes for underneath the stall but no other height. Although I am looking at a little wooden IKEA box thingy as I am sitting here typing, will probably nab that off the shelf and incorporate it somehow.
If it's okay with you I would like to share some piccies of what I will be bringing with me to try and sell. Just a small selection.
| Drawstring bags from tutorial name to be supplied! |
| Linen "bunting" mug rugs |
I have made several notebook covers using Cindy's tutorial.

ReplyDeleteOh your bags are so cute. I thought that Friday night was invite only....let me know because I'll be up at the inlaws then.
ReplyDeleteHave fun, and good luck xxx

ReplyDeleteFi, lovely lovely lovely. Good luck and enjoy it! Wish I could come along. Hope you are all well. Much Love Clare
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time! Love the goodies you have on offer :) Will you please take photos and show us your stand?
ReplyDeleteYou could put some sticks in a tall vase with stones and hang the bags from those... I also made taller displays by gluing cheap plates to candle holders to make a high spot... also, try shoeboxes or such covered with a nice FQ, some flat and some on their side for more height... visual interest is key... your pieces look wonderful though! Oh... and bring a mug for the mugrugs, maybe a play cookie as well if you have one?
ReplyDeleteYou know, when I make it back to Ireland, I am totally stopping by.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your show.
Hope you are having a good time at your craft fair.
