And that's exactly what we did last Sunday. It was take 2 at the Artist Market in Port Macquarie and I am pleased to say it was a much better market day than the last time we went. LOL
Don't you just love bunting? I have it all the way around my marque.
I think my success this time was due in part to the new beachy wares on offer. There was a funky beach chick section...
...lots of beach inspired signs, blackboards, hanging art, paintings and framed watercolours...
Aimee had her fingers crossed that this painting wouldn't sell as she wanted it for our beachy family room, but it went pretty quickly. I'll have to paint another similar one for our house!
I also had a table of shabby and romantic cottage pretties that sold very well too. I even sold cupcakes.... amazing eh! I didn't expect to after shocking them last time, but they came back for them.
Aimee had her own basket of goodies on offer ~ she had made packets of reindeer food to sell and was overjoyed every time she made a sale. She has already re-stocked in readiness for the Christmas market next week.
The market was buzzing with activity and colour. We had a good laugh at the balloon mans antics.
Mid-morning the drumming circle began.... what a great idea.
Anyone could join in. It was a mix of young and old, with participants forever changing. The beat was hipnotic and a real crowd pleaser.
I got to catch up with some new market friends and of course I snuck out for a little shopping too [giggle].
Sooooo, a great day was had and now I have a better feel for what sells here. Next Thursday we have our twilight Christmas market which I desperately need to be making stock for BUT... er... um... I'm working on another major project. I'll tell you about that one next post.
So no surprises I guess, that I will be working over the weekend to restock for the Christmas market.
