Nervous and excited all at the same time.

 A few pics of what you will find at my stall on market day.




Well I probably should have been brave and started doing the markets ages ago, but something small in the back of my head is always putting me off. But no I am building my confidence up and sewing like mad to have my creations all ready to go.

I suppose what made me change my mind was I finally drag myself along to one of those social networking groups stood like a nigel and took a few samples and the response that I got - I was little bowled over. And all said that "I hope your doing the markets" and my reply was that I am doing my first one in a couple of weeks which is now only 7 sleeps away Yay.

What worries me is, all the what if's. What if I only sell one thing, or no one turns up at the markets (although I know that isn't true as these markets are always buzzing) This is where I need to be positive stand up and be brave and know that surely someone is going to buy and love my hand made loved goodies. Mums who stay at home doing like myself deserve more credit for what they are doing as they put their heart, soul and money into what they are passionate about and to get something in return so they can stay at home with their children etc. Also there is a lot of undiscovered talent out there.

Anyway, have many list's of what to take right down to safety pins, flask, pricing my goodies and of course myself. People have been great in giving advice on what to take, and how to make my stall look great, everything that I hadn't thought about. Just need to finish off afew last pieces and I guess I am ready to go. Fingers crossed guys. And a big thank you to all that has given my great advice. xxxx
