Remember Renegade?

We had a great time at Renegade a couple of weeks ago so we thought we'd better get around to posting a photo of our stall. We were both really excited but a little nervous about the whole thing it being our first market in London and all. Despite all this set up went fairly smoothly and our new designed-and-built-the-day-before shelves (thanks Dad!) went up without a hitch. That was until we realised we had left all the float money at our friend's house so I left to pick it up and somehow went all the way there and back and still managed to forget to bring it back with me! I blame the lack of sleep during the week before the market.
Once we were up and running we had a chance to have a little look around and met some really lovely folks, sadly we were a bit slack on the photography front but some of our favourites were Kate Sutton, Zosienka & Rosie and Hazel Stark to name but a few. We also loved having a few familiar bloggers stop by for a chat - the lovely Kerry from Seventy Tree and Virginia from Roddy and Ginger. It was great to meet you.


C was most unimpressed with my photography efforts and his dodgy expressions so has asked me to add an apology on his behalf!

Cake and Craft...

So the Checkout Art Market in Bristol went well... such a sunny day filled with crafts and cakes and lovely friendly people - does it get much better?!

Our stall was next to the gorgeous work of Trigger Editions who made us feel very welcome and made the five hours fly by. The cakes were supplied courtesy of the lovely ladies of Tabletop Cakes and as we were sat nearly opposite their beautiful stand I couldn't hold out for long - they were delicious! We were also sitting facing the stunning work of the SNAP Studio artists who were selling prints and cards and also running a mini screen printing workshop. It was so inspiring and if I were richer (and had not spent all my money on cakes!) I would have been in there buying, buying, buying.

It was also an unexpected treat to put a face to the name behind the lovely Seventy Tree blog... we only discovered it recently but have been hooked ever since.
