Bazaar ended

The bazaar at Trafalgar St went really well!
Lots of things sold, a few bracelets and earrings, some pink alabaster necklaces as well, and a stone brown stone cross. Lots of people were there and out of most of them we cleaned up pretty well. People really liked the jewelry, lots of comments and praise for the workmanship of the products.

Here are some pictures of some of the recently sold items.

and a few other things not shown here, heart shaped alabaster necklaces and soapstone and Tibetan silver sun bracelets not shown here, all it all it was a good bazaar.

Bazaar this thurdsay

Ok new location for my crafts this week. Someone Else will be attending the Bazzaar for me this week. The new location is on November 20th at 919 Trafalgar St, London, Middlesex County, Ontario. The same applys as last week, same articles for say as last week was a total no show as far as people went.

This is more advertised than the last location so with any luck it should go well, any one with in the London Ontario area please feel free to stop on by and get yourself some faery earrings or some hand carved soapstone necklaces. Paintings and sculptures are going to be there as well. New Item for this Bazaar, soapstone with sterling silver and wooden beaded bracelets, so stop by the location and visit the table.

Craft Sale at a local church

Ok so that didn't go as well as I was hoping it would. Sold a few things here and there but lot as many as I would of liked to. I think I should of investigated what MOPS actually stands for; Mothers Of Preschool children. Ya not really the best venue for soapstone carvings and necklaces. It wasn't full of school stuff, but little old ladys and their crosaid hand towels and christmas decoration.

Oh well was worth the effert and at lest I didn't chicken out at the last minute. Went with my 6 year old and tryed to play that card, but I think thats just been played out too much, besides she was handful and wouldn't stop playing with the necklaces. I also think that a mans presence was not really what should of been behind the table, going to send the wife next time.

I also found that I clearly sold more things on Ebay and els where than I did at the church, mind you the whole thing was very poorly advertised and the turn out was less than hopeful. I think mabe 10 to 15 people walked in.
