Shout out for Cornwall Crafters



Call out for Cornwall crafters!

Im currently living down in the southwest of England at the mo, a far cry from the mountains of Chamonix but im lovin it! I was just wondering if any of you out there have much experience with the Cornwall craft scene, fairs and the like?

There are a ton, some with rather expensive stands others with more modestly priced ones. In fact I am interested to know how all you crafty crafters out there find the whole craft fair thing. Do you make any money?

So if you have ever had a stand at a craft fair, not just in the UK, anywhere in the world I would be very interested to hear your comments.

Back on line!

Ok, so after a long cold winter in the alpes with not much time to myself selling goretex to skiiers, it's summer! Hopefully I will have a lot more time to dedicate to my jewellery and to my blog and to Etsy as they have been sorely neglected. Etsy for those you you that don't know about it is a great site selling and promoting handmade goods from all over the world and is also a good source for some quirky supplies. Click on the buttons on the left and it will take you straight to it.

The winter in Chamonix can be pretty full on, living in a ski resort is some peoples idea of heaven, but you soon realize that even the novelty of Heaven will wear off eventually. With -20 for most of the winter I tend to go into hibernation.

But after waking up out from hibernation I am now in a new place for a while living and working in the UK so we'll see what the change in scenery brings. I have already bought myself a new sketch book and have started drawing again for the first time in years. So it's all good. I hope to hear from you, leave posts and comments please I love to hear from you.
