Market Reject

The market didn't go so welli in fact I didn't get a single sale, thats right not one. Perhaps I need to venture further afield, There is a market in Hobart that is more expensive but in theory much more profitable. And I can always try popping over the stream to Melbourne and trying the Market at the Abbotsford Convent. But most of all I need a few shops around the country who stock my wares. I think that will have to be prority number 1 for now. Oh and get more photos on Etsy. It can't possibly be that no-one wants my beautiful naturally dyed silk and wool, I am just not getting it seen by the right people. Back to the drawing board.

Harder Than It Looks

Just trying for a nice header but for some reason it insists on being enormous. Patience my pretties. Tomorrow I am off to market to market to buy a fat pig. Well no not really, I will be having my stall at the local markets here in downtown launceston, flogging me wares and hoping the powers that be a are smiling down graciously on me. Who'll buy my wares. That all depends on which souls are brave enough to come out in this cold weather. At least the market is inside even tough it is still not the warmest place in the world, I will make sure to rug up. I have some lovely new silk scarves to take with me tomorrow, whizzed up some beauties with red onion skins and Euc leaves this week and I have a new rack to diplay them on, heres hoping for big sales. Oh and I have two new little handbound books to add to the stall as well. One day there will be photos. I promise.

June Bugs

Well I got the news I was waiting and hoping for. What I havent told you about it. I applied on monday to be a part of a program that helps you set up your own small business and today they rang to let me know that I got in. So come Tuesday morning, I will be off all bright and sparkly to the Induction day. I have plans and now is the time to start nurturing them so they grows big and beautiful. More news as it comes to hand.

OOps

Well this is not as easy as it looks. Turn your back and a week slips past. Perhaps it is just a matter of it becoming a habit? So what have I done in the last week? I placed some of my silk scarves in The Vintage Rose, a little shop in Lonnie. I had an interview for a job I don't really want. Which I will find out about tomorrow. I got some great books out of the library and I have an appointment this afternoon at the Employment agency. All I really want to do is make stuff. Are there jobs like that? Oh and I took some of my small painted pices to show a friend. And she wants to know when I will be teaching classes. Maybe when I have a studio space to hang up my shingle. Ah dreams.

slow and steady

Day 2, still no idea but I have managed a picture and something in the profile. At this rate I should know what I am doing by xmas!!

Who'd a thought

Well here we are post no 1. I have no idea what I am doing. But somebody thought it would be a good idea. I will get the hang of it eventually........ I am almost positive.
