August 26th Sale
Weather Forecast: Windy, Cloudy, Rainy... Blah! What's with all the crappy weather on the weekend? It's sunny all week while I am at work then Saturday is grey and rainy!
Well 3 sales this week despite the rain! Less people than last week and I had to remove everything from the table for about 45 mins while this insane wind swept across the market... first though... all my vases flew off the table... and didn't break thankfully.
3 sales: My hanging pink fish vase and a set of my etsy verb buttons and a set of Pink Bathtubs flatcards!
Many business cards were taken for Cheryl Avenue, Glorious Hats, and Ohma!
Most popular items: Faff Creation's Flower Garden Vase, Cheryl Avenue's Watch Clips, Glorious Hat's felted bracelets and ribbon scarf, Art2Art Colorado's Digital Prints (esp. the colored pebble one), OhMa!'s tea towels... people had lots of comments about recognizing the patterns on them!
I handed out 12 Etsy books with all our ads in them to some very interested buyers...
I am hoping for better weather in two weeks for the first September one on the 16th... and I think people will be interested in buying more in Sept. and October because then people think about christmas... :)
A lot of people looked at the items and wanted to bring friends and family members to see them because they thought they were very unique...
The other interesting thing about the market is that there isn't another stall that looks like mine... since mine is such a mix a lot of people take the time to look through each basket of items on the table or the items on the table... The other stalls at this market that were not selling food were only selling jewelry or paintings.... so I think we had a nice mix... and many asked when I would be back there selling... :)
Photos to follow shortly... :)

Sounds good, even with the gloomy day. You did great Eve. Thanks so much for promoting and showing our wares.
I'll get some more felted bracelets up on Etsy. It is super of you to tell us what things garner the most comment/interest.
Jane
Thanks for your kind words Jane... I hope the September ones will have better weather! :)
I am hoping to display your felted head in the next one... :)
Glad to hear that one of my flat note sets sold!
I will keep my fingers crossed for better weather!
