there are loads of "carfters" on here who dont craft there on products, not just me, i dont see the need to highlight "craft" in red everytime, its up to the individual organisers of each fair to decide if the they want craft only stalls or not. at the end of the day we are all out for the same thing - to earn a living and put food on the table

Oh Fi - was not getting at you at all - I just meant that the thread was called NI CRAFT fairs 2010 - so when you search craft it comes up.

the word 'craft' is always in red on my computer I don't highlight it, that is just the way it comes up.

I think your jewellery is lovely fi, and agree it is totally up to the organiser if they want to have craft only or not.
