A sale like no other....

Thankyou to those who are interested in how the sale went, let me put your mind at rest....I closed after three hours!!!
It was miserable weather, Autumn decided to show up, and I think it scared most of  my customers away....


It was great to see a few of my regulars visit first thing, and maybe a dozen or so came in the next hour, but by 11am, it died a quick death!


I had tarps up everywhere, but the wind was cold and damp, I gave in, and packed up!  And just to taunt me, the sun came out for the next hour, and people were driving up the lane looking for my little studio, staring at the locked gate...shame...


Well after a night of sulking and disappointment, I decided that I will just have to plan my next sale in April. Check for new dates soon over HERE.
I took some pics, and made my new banner, but saved my favourite one to show here!
This lovely lady visits every month, we have a great catchup chat, and she usually finds something special to take home.


So how was your weekend ladies?
