Its Happening

Well I'm finally getting it together, to join the world largest craft market. Yes Etsy. Yeehaa
Its so good to actually be trying to sell my stuff, instead of just accumulating it. I did a festival/Market it was good, and I sold stuff, even better, but not a the prices I would like. Its hard to earn a living wage as a crafts person.
Abit more work figuring it all out, and i'll be department store material.

Off to the Markets


Years and Years ago, in a past life, i did the markets. Handy and i did them when we first got married, but a life with babies wasn't condusive to a market lifestyle for us.

When i do a market stall, i like make everyting, its just so much fun.

I'm doing it because i'm at my happiest making beautiful things, cutting sewing, gluing, laughing at my own jokes.
I'm going to focus on Hats, because I don't think you can buy anything decent, that isn't made in China. I don't want to keep on buying Made in China Stuff. So i'll run with my own little Sweat shop, with me doing all the sweating. These hats are made from my collection of vintage fabric, and I will have another design this week.
I'd like to get $40 each for these hats, at the markets, and when i get it together, in my Etsy store.
