Well firstly we’ve done our first good show of the year and it wasn’t even a craft show… it was a festival!!!! Two whole days of customers and fine weather….. I’m in shock Maybe thing are looking up… have a few festivals over the new few months so maybe they are the answer […]
Well we’ve done 4 shows so far this year and they have all been terrible… not just for us… but for all the exhibitors Feally not sure whats going on… maybe the year started too early with Easter being in March, maybe its because the weather still thinks its February. What ever it […]
Well only 3 weeks to go till this years first craft fair and how much have I done to get ready…nothing…… a 3 moth break and I haven’t even got round to washing the table cloths yet Never mind sorting the stock and buying what I’ll need t camp on that first weekend. […]
Well in the next 2 weeks I’m going to have to get round to sorting out my Craft Fair Stock but in the meantime I’m carrying on with the Web stuff. This time I’ve put together http://www.craftbargains.co.uk . The idea is for crafters to post the best prices they’ve found for craft materials…. gradually we […]
Well the winter continues and I’m spending a lot of time on computer stuff, no shows booked until March so I might as well do something

We its the last show for us of the year this weekend…. Sandringham with Living Heritage. Hasn’t been a great year all in all, I think the Craft Circuit has definitely suffered because of the floods and Foot and Mouth.
There is still the question “have craft shows had their day?”, are they now seen as […]
Well I’ve finished my first two glass painting videos.
The first one shows you how to make and pipe using a piping bag.

Just back from the Sandringham Craft Fair… not a bad show at all, lots of people there… a tad too hot on the Sunday (believe it or not)…
so why the doom and gloom?
well after more than a month of rubbish shows and shows cancelled due to the weather now we have another outbreak of foot […]
Some of you may or may not know we run a Craft forum
I have just spent the last hour reading and deleting posts off it which in my mind are nothing to do with craft!!! Like Craft Fairs, it is being invaded by the “I import CRaft goods from China”… “hello we’re a Craft […]
