Well I have decided to have a booth at the market in town this year and have been racking my brain for weeks for a name.... something that reflects the love and care I put into what I create, as well as the variety of things I create. FINALLY - today, 4 days before market, it came to me after a lot of time praying and thinking on it... "From the work of my hands". And behold, as I sat down to create some kind of logo or design, I decided to Google the phrase and was surprised to find few results.... then I searched it as a blog name and it was available. Hmmm..... interesting! So I seized the moment and claimed it!
I hope to post some pictures of the creations I have prepared for the market, though it may be after market day as these last few days I am preparing in every spare moment.
Things you can expect to see are:
- Four different designs of homemade Christmas cards with envelopes, $10 for 5
- Four handmade gift bags that turned out actually quite nice and I am having second thoughts about selling them! No no, I will put them out. Will be priced at $3-5 each, depending on size
- Knit items for women and children, various prices from $8 to $30 and mostly in natural fibres
- Simple cozy blankets with fun patterns for babes, boys, and girls. Ranging from small 24" square size, to 45"x25"(with the cutest monkey pattern you've ever seen!) Still working on the pricing for these!
As a random side note, a friend who is an Usborne consultant has been trying to encourage me to sign up, or to spread the need for a consultant in town. I saw her yesterday and she asked if I wanted to take a box of books to the market since no one else was likely to be selling them. I agreed... though not sure how I am going to fit all this stuff on one table!
Hope to see all you locals there, and for anyone who isn't in town and is interested in anything after I post pics, I will be happy to arrange getting it to you!
