My market fun


As promised, some pics from the market yesterday.


Here is my little stall.






These goodies were made by Tonia at The Paper Shed. She was my market neighbour.



Other goodies on display...



I had a very fragrant stall on my other side which was handy as we needed some new soap.



My only temptation was some macarons from one of the stall holders. This one is boysenberry flavour. The salted caramel one didn't last long enough to get a pic - it was amazing!



There were so many shoppers and thankfully some of them visited me :)
I did quite okay, I covered my costs and have a bit of spending money. Much of this is thanks to my friends who came along and supported me, as did a number of my bloggy friends. I had nice chats with Jane, Catherine and Hazel (who I met for the first time in person).
It was a fun day and I already have fresh ideas for my next market maybe early next year.

ps I might get a few bits on Esty later, but don't hold your breath!
