Midweek sales

Taking driftwood flowers into work today prompted two sales!

I am always happy to see how happy these little driftwood flowers make people smile

Busy making a couple of special orders 

Two retirement gifts constructed and some Christmas stuff created

More pictures to come

#christmas is coming!

Last day of my mini break

Took advantage of the sunshine and made these beauties

Getting a good stock ready for the Christmas market place at Campbell River Community Centre

Back to the regular job in the morning....😁

Special order #retro

At the sale two weeks ago, I was asked to make a special order

"Can you make a campsite with a retro camper?"

Of course I could,  love a challenge!

The buyer was thrilled, me too!

Signed up for the Christmas Bazaar at the community centre on 4th November 

I'd better crack on with some projects!

Thanksgiving

Luckily for me I have 6 days off over the long weekend

This gave me opportunity to start on some Christmas goodies

I enquired this week about the upcoming Toy & Craft sale

However this is over subscribed and I'm on the wait list

I may opt for the Christmas sale at the community centre instead

A smaller event but something I feel I could cope with

These turned out great and I've other orders to start on, laters!

Sale time

It was time on Saturday to expose 50th Parallel to the public

To be honest I was nervous about doing a sale but on reflection I don't know why

It was fun to set up the stall and even better to meet and greet customers and other sellers

I wondered if I had enough stuff

 

 

 

 

As it turned out there was plenty

Great feedback and a number of sales

All in all it was well worth the effort and worry

In addition I made my largest Etsy sale this week, one boat and four more custom made boats

Out of choice I would not repeat stuff I'd made but that's what they wanted!

Finished off my weekend at a course to improve my Etsy store

Feeling pretty good and already planning another sale.....stay tuned!
