Getting ready for the Craft Fair this weekend

We have 6 new canvases ready for the craft fair - two small canvases from the cafe which haven't been shown here for at least a year, and four medium ones which I've just bought. But the main new attraction is Boat and pier, taken at Loch Ranza on the Isle of Arran.  I'm hoping this will be popular. It looks stunning at 30 x 20 inches.


Setting up is on Thursday, and the fair opens on Friday morning.  We usually do quite well at the November fair, though people seem to buy for themselves rather than as Christmas presents.

We tried out some A5 cards at the July fair and they went very well, so I've increased the number of designs and also the quantities available.  These are all printed out ready in their cello bags, but the numbers of each design needs to be checked as they have been plundered since I printed them!

So tomorrow I'll check everything ready for setting up on Thursday.  I'm always afraid I will have forgotten something vital, but so far that hasn't happened. Fingers crossed.
