Prep for website and market

Friday is the start of a very busy day.
I start by taking photos of my handmade jewellery which will be put on the website over the weekend, a task which was interrupted because my camera battery needed charging--- great! Not to worry I just move onto my preps for tomorrows market which include bagging up my new beads, a tedious task.
The beads are done, I relax a little and look forward to a great day on the market tomorrow,  I think its going to be a cold and wet day!

Early start

Winter is coming, the mornings are getting darker and colder, brrrr its going to be chilly putting up my market stall in Lancaster. But this is just the start of it I can look forward to temperatures below zero, icicles on the end of my nose and feet like blocks of ice.
Its all worth it though because I get to meet some real interesting people and I'm not just talking about the other market traders!
Over the last 2 years selling my handmade jewellery and my new range of handmade lampwork beaded jewellery and other fashion jewellery I have built up my customer base steadily and now some of these customers are my friends.
I love what I do because I am a peoples person I can chat all day but most of all I can show the world my artistic side, all my bracelets, necklaces and earrings are unique and original in design, especially my handmade lampwork glass beads (more about these later).

I am in Lancaster outside the HSBC bank on Market Street every Wednesday and Saturday. Come along for a chat and grab yourself a piece of my original artwork, it will be great to see you.
