Our village community came together on Saturday, at the Summer Fair on the Green. I was there early to set up my stall, next to the Cat Rescue stall. I thought I would get into the Christmas spirit by wearing my reindeer jumper. It was a tad chilly, but thankfully it didn't rain.
Visitors were a bit slow to arrive in the beginning, but the crowds came piling in after lunchtime. I didn't take any photo's as I have done in previous years. Someone from the Parish Council did that so I expect to see them in future publications.
It was a fun day. My sales were pretty good, and the bonus was that I got to chat with lots of people. And also chat with lots of dogs. 😁
We've had quite a lot of rain over the last two days so the garden is growing like crazy. I will have to spend some time outside now, tidying it up. The hedgehogs are still coming, and I seem to have a lot of birds coming down for food. They clear the cats dishes of any left overs.
Banana and cereal for breakfast so now I must get up off my bum and do something. We will catch up soon. Toodle pip. ilona
That sounded a fun idea to wear your Christmas jumper in June Ilona - and someone just may have thought then that they would buy an early Xmas gift x
ReplyDeleteMy Christmas jumper did create a few smiles.
DeleteLovely to see you with your table at the Community Summer Fair.

I am spending more time on my yoootooob channel. Lots of conversations going on there. Blogging has a limited audience. People are more interested in watching something rather than reading about it.
DeleteI bet your stall was the most colourful one.
ReplyDeleteIt did look very nice, and the unusual items on display created a lot of interest. I spent a lot of time explaining how I made some of them. I hope people went away and had a go themselves at making something.
DeleteHello I am a fan. Did you sell anything? I love the art would you ever post anything?
DeleteHello Anon. Several reasons why I don't do distance selling.
DeleteIf I say yes to one, many more will follow and I will end up with the job of making more, wrapping and packing, and going to the post office.
I cannot accept payment electronically, it has to be cash.
The rules for distance selling can get a bit messy if the person is not satisfied and wants a refund.
I don't want to add any complications to my life, I like it as it is, simple.
Thank you for asking.
Really pleased it didn’t rain and that you sold some of your gorgeous work. I know the money raised will go to a good cause.
ReplyDeleteAnimal charities are my fave. I have just given Bransby Horses £100, now I am saving for the next donation which will be for Goodheart farm animal rescue.
