Successful Weekend!

Firstly thank you so much all of you that wished me luck at yesterdays fair... it worked!


Whilst I did not sell any candles I did sell a lot of vintage tablecloths, pillowcases and  Ladybird books!

I covered the cost of the pitch and made a profit so not bad for a days work!


I think the candles will sell better nearer Christmas when people will buy for presents and I now know that I need some of the smaller priced items that people can pick up in passing


After the fair I rushed home to get ready for my dad's 60th and uncles 50th birthday meal - 20 of us sitting round a table in our local Prezzo's!!


It was a lovely evening and I've spent today sitting on the sofa nursing the effects of it!!

I hope you've all had a great weekend... do we really need to go back to work tomorrow??

Pin It Now!
