Craft Show - Jan 2013 - Don Valley Stadium

This weekend (and part of last week) saw us packing boxes full of lots of yummy crafting goodies, unpacking them and then repacking what was left on Sunday to return to the store.

You guessed it - we went to the craft fair at Don Valley Stadium this Sunday.

It was a fun day that goes far too quick, great to chat to friends both old and  new.

I forgot to take the camera but I have some pictures from last November.





Although we thought we had most products on the stand, I still uttered the words
'we have some in stock at the shop',
 far too many times.

So my thought for the one in June is, let me know what you need in advance and we will bring it with us (or order it for you.)

Happy crafting.

Workshops Sept-Oct 2012

As normal life is running along with us jogging just a few steps behind.  I think we would all like to fit in a few more jobs in to the time we have, but realising this is not a reality, we settle for doing our best. By climbing our mountain at a steady rate, when we reach the top we will have enough breath left to appreciate the view. (I think I will use that/my quote on a journal page)

This weekend along with the normal number of boat trips we fitted in retailing at one of our local craft shows at Don Valley Stadium the next one being in November.  It was a little quieter than the one in June, but it gave Georgina a chance to chat to both new and old customers, and finish a couple of demo pieces.

Monday a quite day at the Quays Georgina finished the Workshop Programme for September and October.  Which I have uploaded today on both our main site (until the craft one is finished) and created a new page on the blog, just go via the tab at the top of the page.  The new page needs a few photo's but that will be later in the month (see I now made that into a no pressure job).

The store is full of stock with no space for a large craft table, so we use the boat whenever it is not out tripping or the function room in 'The Quays 1819' bar, both have wheelchair access and great light areas for crafting.

Thought I would give you a few pictures of the boat in workshop mode.



Birthday chocolates.



Good to see everyone paying attention.




Now I want to know what was happening on the quayside!
 

 Not bad managed to put two pictures of Georgina in. Big giggles



Thought I better put one in of me as well.  Us at a Rangers retailer workshop.


Happy Crafting.
