I haven't posted a pic on here for ages so i apologise in advance for the quality of this one. My Mum has just been here and asked me to make this one up on the spot for her to give to my step brother to take home to Barnstaple for his friends:eek::eek::eek: I have very little selection at the moment so had to make do. I have some black Nici sheep that I bought for a bargain and my Mum really loves them so because we are Welsh she thought it would be very appropriate to use lol. They are not to everyone's taste because they are black but it does look cute in the flesh.
The picture quality is appalling as I didnt have my photo tent to hand either - the middle tier has little hands and little feet ribbon on it - very out of focus and doesn't show the sheep off properly.

Wow fab cakes Moonpenny and Shelley!:T:T:T. Amazing you can just throw a nappy cake together and it still look so fantastic Shelley! Fab.

Rusty just read your message so will pm you in a bit. :eek:

Did the first of my 3 April fairs and it went really well :j. Julie glad I took extra supplies for sock pints as the went down a storm! Thanks for the idea for that one. The shop i supply has ordered 20 of them too so I think I'm going to get some strange looks when i go to buy the supplies for them lol!
Sold all my mini cakes, loads of sock rose buds, cupcakes. Sold out of swiss rolls, muffins and the new mum survival kits too! Only had 3 new dad ones left. Got 5 orders for future big cakes too!
So I'm a happy Easter bunny!

p.s. forgot to say there was another lady doing nappy cakes and flannel cakes too but she did badly and said she wont be doing another show there again. She said 'there's only room for one nappy cake maker here so i wont bother again'!

Well done Bella on your successful day & your stall looks fabarooony!!! Can't believe the other nappy cake lady got sooo huffy!! :rotfl:

although a little while ago a similar thing happened to myself & a friend - we were doing a favour for another friend of ours - she designs & makes wedding stationery but was unavailable to go along to a really good wedding fayre so we did it for her - anyway there was another lady there selling wedding statoinery & before the event even started she came over to have a looksie at our stuff & when we asked if we could help her she said 'ooh no I've got a stall selling wedding stationery but yours is completely different to mine' and walked off! Well I thought she seemed a bit snooty about it so I went & had a nosey at her stall to see how different it was & tbh her stuff was not completely different at all - very similar in fact! was funny later when we were completely swamped with orders & sales when she was looking at us with daggers - later found out that hers were much more expensive than ours...!:T Our friend was very pleased with us as she got about 8 orders from that fayre & 3 were ordered on the day - almost unheard of !!!

Oooh its making me all nervous the thought of doing a stall & thats just at a school fete!!!:eek: Can I ask how do you find out about Craft/Gift fairs that are going on in local area? Also I'm sure that when it gets nearer the time I will be inundating you with questions!!! hope you don't mind!!

Mind's gone blank now - ummmm Moonpenny lovely lovely pink cakes - my fave colour!!!

Irlip - thanks hun - I really love that pink cello too - its little pink flowers - gonna try & get some more if I can!! Good luck with shopping expedition tomorrow! I might pop out too! not that I need more stuff :rotfl:can't see the dining room any longer for the mountains of baby stuff!!

night night everyone!
