My Creative Space

Well, things are really busy around here after having a whole 36hrs off the job this week! And my creative space is mostly related to market preparation...

I have bought a market tent/gazebo thingo, I have 2 tables, I'm making up signage, and finishing up some new little fleecy guys and gals. I'm also printing as much as I can, and trying really hard to be really organised...

making memo holders
I've made up a whole batch of memo holders to hold my price tags, thanks to Mitsy and her tutorial (and ingenuity!) :) I'll post photos of the actual finished product soon.

A little blonde... and a Frenchie too! Awesome fabric again from Mayumi.

And I'm loving this colour! It's the one I'm using for my market banner, so stay tuned!

And just a little note about my PIF a day:
I announced a couple of days ago that I will be selling 1 item a day in my Etsy Shop for 50c plus the price of postage. I had written a little note about etiquette with that post, but I'm going to have to go one step further and say that:

If a person purchases more than 2 items this way, I will be canceling their transaction because I want to share it around a bit, and let everyone have a turn... that's part of the fun.

In light of this, it might be wise not to simply buy something because it is cheap, there will be a variety items go up for sale... and there are still 33 days left to go... you don't want to waste your chance on something that doesn't really float your boat now do you!?

Your market stall is going to be just beautiful! Very inspiring. I would love to know how you get on with your marquee. I havent invested in one yet and know its inevitable, would love to get a good recommendation.

Ohh, I need to link this post in my tutorial! As I always have an abundance of clay laying around, I always forget other people may not have and these cups are just the greatest idea! :)PLUS, they will look far better then the ones I made as all the bottoms are different! :)Cant wait to see the banner! :)
