    Has anyone started thinking about craft shows, church fetes etc? I have no idea how to find out about them.
    I've looked at the big craft show at the NEC in April but its £525 for the smallest stall size, so I can't afford that on my own!
    The only other one I can find is in December...there much be something sooner then that!!
    I'm dying to go somewhere with my stuff.
    Wow, how good would it be if all you crafty people could go and have a stall together!!

    I wish I was good at stuff like that so I could join you!

    Saucy is there a local newspaper or free newspaper. they are sometimes advertised in those but at quite short notice.
    Is there any kind of whats on website locally or email tourist information and ask them where such things might be advertised.

    Craft shows are a brilliant idea although I would spend way more than I made lol

    what about advertising in local students unions and college students unions. I know you are leaving but doesn't stop you advertising there plus there must be other uni/ college places around.

    That is an excellent idea Jo...and if anyone does want to share a stall at the NEC, I'd be interested. It's supposed to be an amazing show!

    I shall go research local papers.

    If anyone here wants some business cards to give out for me, I've got lots :rotfl:

    I'll be off round the nurseries at the weekend to give them out, hopefully they'll let me even if it's just because I used to work in them, lol.

    I am so determined to make this a success!

    Edit: I have just realized how much I talk about myself. I must seem so self centered. I'm sorry guys. I will work on it!

    Nixi did you notice I found out age concern will work with anyone age 50 or over and their relatives.
    They have loads of info/ advice sheets on their website and are really in the know about all the legal and money side of things.
    Think I posted after you had gone to bed last night.
