A New Style

Hi ya!

Well Xmas is just around the corner so I thought it was about time I learned a new style of earring.  I'd bought quite a few beading books while I was in Noosa recently on holiday to get some new ideas. 

I found the below style which uses tigertail instead of headpins.  It was supposed to be easy, but it still took me a while to figure it all out ha ha

Hope you like them!

Have a great Xmas!  I'm hoping to learn some more new styles in the coming weeks :)

My First Market

Hi ya :)

It was a very early 4.30am wake up call on Sunday morning to get ready to go to the Browns Bay markets.  I arrived at the market at 5.15am with my no.1 helper (Paul).  There was a huge queue on the road waiting to get into the market, and we were really lucky to even get in!

It was a really long day, and I only sold 6 pairs of earrings to three customers. Hardly anyone even looked at my display :(  Paul has worked really hard making my awesome display board.

Most of the people at the market were interested in three things..

1) Fruit
2) Vegetables
3) Junk

I didn't have any of those things to sell.  I decided that Browns Bay isn't the right market for me so I will look for another to try this weekend.

My highlights of the day was getting to pat lots and lots of doggies that were there.  I kinda wished that Paul and I had bought our two doggies along (Boris and Ollie) but that would have been pure chaos lol

I bought my earrings into my work on Monday and sold 12 pairs during my lunch break..kinda made up for my poor sales on Sunday.

I've hit 86 sales so far.. can't wait to make it to 100.

The more I sell,  the more I can make!!
