everything looks lovely WELL DONE!!!:T:T

Kate and Gemzie - lovely makes well done to both of you.

My table top sale was a flop. Made £18 and had to pay £8 for the table It was sooooo quiet, when I've been previously it's heaving and you're jammed in like sardines. Bloomin' typical. So I have 22 snowman soups to drink this winter and my tree is now decorated with ES mints.

Next year I am not sure I shall even bother, just make things to order. I shall not bother with the ES mints again (poor profit margin anyway) or reindeer poop. The Bah Humbugs, Friends Mints, Reindeer food and Xmas dog treats all sold the best.
Didn't sell a single flannel reindeer or sock cupcake. Feeling bit despondant although everyone wasn't selling not just me. Just not sure any of this is worth all the expense and effort
Good luck to those of you who have fairs etc to come.

Aww sorry to hear it didnt go too well Bitsy. Im not sure where you are located but I know that the weather where I am has been putting alot of people off even going outdoors.

Gemzie and Kate, lovely stuff there! Well done!!
