    I hate some ratty "homemade" jewellery errrm yep its obviously homemade cause no shop i know would dare sell that tat ! Not suggesting your stuff is ratty btw OP just some !

    To the OP sounds like the organizer couldn't organize a celebration at a brewery.

    Hope you get your jewellery back ... I would use hubby's facebook to add a post to her page along the lines of what pinkshoes wrote. Hopefully shame her in front of her friends to returning your jewellery

    Yep,some is.And it can give those of us who are good and are actual jewellers/goldsmiths a bad name,even without viewing.Thankfully though,it leave the market to those of us who can sell in galleries and for hundreds a piece

    example of something I have made :)

    Nice beadwork :) I used to and wire wrap before silver/goldsmithing.It us very much it's own skill set :) I just went crazy with expensive bits though as it wasn't really 'me' and I kept trying to be too creative/different with it!

    Perhaps you could put in a complaint and ask for your stall fee back?
    :heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.

    the event organiser went home early 'with migraine' & while at home 'with migraine' BLOCKED all the stall traders from her FB so we cannot contact her thru that.
    She has also denied any wrong doing/fault/lack of doing
    She has blamed the stall traders for it all
    She has referred to the stall traders as 'back stabbers'

    A couple of people have managed to have contact with her & she has denied knowing them

    She was supposed to give receipts for the stalls on the day (because oops she 'forgot' to before hand) .... can anyone guess where this might me going?

    So in all honesty I think as much as some people made major losses because of it all, we will just be happy to get her known to as many of the crafting network as possible to minimise this from happening again x
