Another quiet day at the craft fair, pretty depressing although the 'regulars' again commenting on how unusually slow it was, so surely it's got to be better soon....
Again made a few sales, so not too devastating, although it was a beautiful day and a good flying day, think I would have been better off working or flying :wink:
The resin tealights looked better with lights behind them (temporary battery led lights from asda @ £3 each :) ) but need to think about making a display shelf/stand thingy I think....
Delivered my first nameplate with a little bit of pyrography for the hair, I wasn't so sure, but the customer was delighted, so I suppose that is what counts. the spaniel is a free pattern from the scrollsaw village pattern gallery, lots of good free patterns there :)
Got a break now before next fair, so going to just make some stuff that takes my fancy now, got a few ideas, but got chased out of shed by a giant wasp today :shock:

Ha ha definitely not :lol: theoretically fly gliders (NOT hang glider!!!) from Aboyne, though the weather has been so bad for the last couple of years that am a bit rusty :( we do occasionally see fast jets, and I believe there was one flying around the gliding club at circuit height and giving the two seater a wing waggle on Saturday, so maybe glad I was at craft fair.....
 
You get days when things don't go as well as expected. Last week was a complete waste of time but today I had a good day and loads of orders for different things including a door name plaque for a little boy who want's the superman logo on it. The bad news is that my printer ran out of ink and it is cheaper to buy a new printer rather than buy new ink and a drum. It's in one hand and out of the other.
