What a weekend!

It's been a bit of a mixed weekend. DH arrived home on Friday instead of Thursday, so it felt like a very long week. But I've been busy painting and getting new bits ready for craft fairs, so it's not been too bad. 

Saturday was a day for meeting up with family. DH's brother and his wife were visiting DH's mum, so we said we'd meet up with them. Only one slight drawback - I ended up with a migraine yesterday.  Not good. It meant that we left home later than planned as I tried to sleep off the migraine for as long as j could. And it also meant I probably wasn't much fun company as I wasn't feeling well. But we got through lunch, and I managed brief conversations, before we headed home and I went back to bed for a couple hours. 

Then today was another craft fair for me. I could really have done with sleeping in to recover from yesterday, but we headed out to see what I could sell. Unfortunately, with the awful weather and the knock-on effect from Black Friday, the craft fair was really quiet and I didn't sell much. But it's all experience and I quite enjoy being out and getting feedback from people about my stuff. I even set up a Christmas tree to hang some clay decorations on! 


So despite the foul weather and the lack of sales, it's not been a bad day really. 

I've finished off a couple of orders from friends, and while watching TV tonight I've had another order from my Etsy store - I haven't had an order for ages so it was so nice to get that - and I'm contemplating doing a three day craft fair at the end of January. 

Exciting times ahead!
