This was the most well organised event I have ever attended, everyone knew what they were doing, the tables and gazeboes were up and ready when the stall holders arrived, everyone was very friendly.Here's my pitch when I'd finished titivating;
The elephants ended up in a basket but I thought they looked a little like puppies at a pet shop trying to escape. They got lots of hugs from passing children and lots of positive comments but I only sold one;
The clothes looked fab on the washing line;
And because I placed the table at the back it meant people came in to the space and could browse and chat better, I didn't feel like I was hiding behind the table;
I got to shake hands with the Mayor of Burnley and later in the afternoon the Lady Mayoress of Padiham stopped by to say hello too!
I didn't take a huge amount of money but made profit and had a lovely day. Because it is so near to home I saw lots of people that I already knew from playgroup, school, nursery and the centre. It was great to catch up with people and stand in the sun and chat!

The washing line is a fabulous idea, it really shows the clothes off. Sounds like a lovely day and what a beautiful spot xx

Your stall looks lovely, I love the little elephants, I remember trying to make those at school..i did it very badly :)
I bet people stayed away because of the weather forecast. Glad you enjoyed it. I was moderately successful at Knowle Green, but people really came to get Open Garden tickets and eat pies and cakes,and not to buy my wares!
