weekend madness!!

well what was to be a quiet weekend turned into an extremely busy one!!

i was asked to have a stall at an evening event in aid of raising funds for Cossington village church. It was a cookery demonstration evening and i was the only stall!!

My candles were a huge success with my citronella lemon pie's being the most popular!! I got home at 10pm and had to start making more candles as i had a last minute stall booked at Seagrave Village Fete as i was visiting a friend in Stratford on Saturday.

On Saturday me and my youngest son had a lovely day out in stratford, watching the boat races, eating icecream and playing with my friends 12 week old black Lab.

Sunday was a fantastic day at Seagrave Village Fete, i met some wonderful fellow crafters, Beccy boo from tickityboo jewellery (i have arranged a jewellery party as i was so taken by her lovely sparkly jewellery), Jane from Just Soaps truly lovely smelling soaps, and toiletries, and i have to say i did treat myself to a lovely draught excluder and 2 fridge magnets made by tickly spider who i'm sure i will be buying more lovely things to decorate my house with!

Again i had a successful day of sales, my strawberry and cream muffin candle was the most popular of the day, and i have to say my favourite at the moment. i was also asked to attend another couple of events later in the year, apparently there are not many of us candle makers in the leicester area!

i have ordered some new supplies and i'm looking forward to receiving them and getting creative...

i have a free weekend this weekend as its my sons third birthday so i'm enjoying some family time, although i'm sure a trip to the car boot will be in order......
