Second Craft Fair Down


So Yeah...Today was Kirstiekrafts second craft fair (post about the first one here). There's a photo of my half of the stall looking pretty sweet. As you can see, I had the felt flowers out in force, along with some lace ones, memo pegs, tote bags and other bits.
And here's a photo of the other half of the stall, well, full of sweets and looking tasty (yes those are full sample plates at the front). I was, of course, sharing again, with the wonderful Treats by Tam. The woman is a genius in the kitchen and her raspberry and white chocolate blondies (like brownies, but not brown) are to die for. My other half went on to spend a fiver on her cinnamon buns, which are also gorgeous (as are all her cakes). I'm guessing tomorrow may be spent in a sugar coma some where.

The lovely Miss Anna was of course there again, selling her divine soap. Got a new dewberry slice and the other half another keylime, even though the last fair was only two weeks ago and I haven't even opened the pomfig one I got then. If you ever encounter her on any craft fair related travels you could do far worse than to stock up on some of her skin kind and lovely smelling treats.

Even though it wasn't the busiest of events, it was great getting to catch up with some of the lovely folk I met at the last event. I get the feeling as Dundee is a small city, I'll be running into these people again and again, which I couldn't be more glad about. The wonderful Heidi from Rowan Tree Crafts being one of these folk, although her daughter trying to feed me bogey flavoured jelly beans, maybe not so much. She crochets blankets, makes her own soap, candles and bath bombs and can do marvellous things with beads and jewellery wire. One of those great crafty folk hiding away in plain sight.

The general public aren't easy pleased and craft fairs can be stressful. What is it they say?.. You don't have to be mad, but it sure helps..
