Cheshire craft swap/indoor car boot - Page 2

There's still time to get there if you're local! The prices are so good and there was loads of stuff being practically given away.....I did promise not to buy anything but you have to, just to be polite, don't you?

And we got to meet Kirsty in the flesh - and she's not half as mad as I thought she might be! (hehe)

Jane, please let me know if you plan another - one of your gorgeous bags is on my wish list now, but should I choose beige or pink, or biege with pink inside or pink with beige inside or, as my 10year old daughter would say, why not get one of each!!!!!

And I promise to bring some homemade lemon cake with me next time! xx

aligov · 19-07-2009, 03:29 PM

give me a shout if you plan another one.

smarty · 19-07-2009, 04:07 PM

We spent a lovely hour here, managed to pick up some great bargains. Thanks for organising this, let us know when the next one is, oh and the tea and cake at the end was lovely.

oh i did have such a laugh an giggle today..... will deffo do it again. Jane is considering it in Wilsmlow town centre on a saturday .... MORE TRAFFIC! But there was a steady flow as it was and a good time was had by most xx

OHHHHHH was nervous but I think MOST stall holders had a good day, I am really sorry about the 2 tables that were not happy and really sad they left early, we did have a lul at 2 ish but then it got busy again after they left which was a real shame.

All the other crafty stalls said they did very well and want to do another one!!, I was very pleased and even though I cant tell that I have sold anything (as I have so much!!) my pocket is heavier and I have some empty drawers!

From the post I have just read there were some happy customers!!

This was of course a learning curve and I think next time I will do it on a Sat and in the centre of town.

I will post the total make for Cancer Research when they let me know.

we had a lot of fun swapping with other stall holders I swapped some great things....I have had a play with my new stash already!!

look out for Sept or Oct!!
Jane

Hi i am one of the three ladies from the two tables that left early o sunday i would'nt say we was unhappy we was a little dissapointed that it was'nt busy
but it was in a very quiet location and had i not of left when i did im afraid i may of fell asleep lol. I do think jane put alot of time and effort into it and wish you all good luck at any you do in the future.

brownbear · 21-07-2009, 10:17 PM

I thought that Saturday went well - Getting rid of more volume would have been good, but I did go home with less of my stash and some goodies from other peoples plus some money to spend!

I'd definitely be interested in another one - I think that we should target other craft forums for advertising - it's amazing how far crafty people will travel for bargains!
