wonderful wonderful wonderful...
Look at this people! Dawn, you know, the thing that happens about 3 hours before I get up.. :-)
So, why did I get to see it this morning? I was off to Market again! yay! I had to wait until the sun was up before I could drill some new pieces that I made yesterday. I had to wire them at the stall but people seem to like watching me actually working so it is a good thing.
so the market? well, we had a terrible location. They have this strange charter that bans the craft people from being anywhere near the farmers so we have to be seperated in case any of our craft vibes rub off on to the veg. We thought it was going to suck and it did. In the end we all banded together and refused to pay our rent :-) Next week we are tying a better spot, closer to the action and on the grass which will be nice. On the upside I did really well this time and also had heaps of fun. It is really fun watching the customers interacting with the work and to watch the stuff that moves. It is really great having some point to my week now :-)
I am so sorry but I havent been reading blogs in a while but WHICH MARKET is this? Is it on every week?
Maybe we will come by and see you next week.

Good on you for standing up to the market people - if they want you to pay rent they should make some effort to accommodate you - how funny that they don't want craft and veg to mix! Glad that it went well anyway, it must be great to get the immediate customer feedback on your new pieces and to see your work turning over.

Hey there, wow, your stall looks so professional! Hey i wonder if there is a market in making people's market stalls? Hmmmm lol... you'd be good at that, but doubt the time to spare.
Yes I got accepted at the Clothespeg thing, just got the email confirming! I havent a clue out of which 3 I sent as accepted.. just wrapped I got in. Apparently it was a highly competitive judging round!
Thanks for coming by so often and commenting, its really nice. I need to start reading peoples blogs again, especially yours, as you seem to be doing so much.
Keep up the great work! :)
