Before I go on about ANYTHING else. The biggest news I have to share is that I sold my first item on Etsy this morning!! Last night, quite late, I saw a mention of an etsy team called Craft Britannia and a treasury they were doing which was "BNR". Having absolutely NO IDEA what this was, I did a bit of digging. Turns out it's an absolutely fabulous concept! It's tricky to explain, and I've just deleted lots of words trying to do so because I think you'd be more confused! If you're interested have a dig on etsy and google... that's how I figured it out. Did I mention A SALE?? :)It's been a very busy weekend and will continue to be so! A week from today I'll be joining in with a couple of friends at the First Folkestone Retrofair trying to sell a few items and hopefully connecting with some fun and like-minded people. Spent a large chunk of yesterday trying to get some more photos together to send off to the printer for the event. Obviously going for a retro or fairground type theme.
Here are some things I've come up with. Would love to hear any feedback anyone has! Prints of most or all of these will be listed in my etsy shop too!
Love the retro prints, especially the one of the funfair ride, really colourful.
ReplyDeletethanks! Funny, I was wondering about including that rooster! :)
ReplyDeleteLove them - and yes, keep the rooster in! only comment, blue toffee apples are very modern! they only came in shades of brown in retro-sense. great photos, and good luck at Folkestone.
ReplyDeletethanks Elizabeth. I'm using retro in a very loose sense... basically anything I thought might appeal at the fair. Those particular toffee apples are over 6 years old now! Took them at the New York State Fair in 2004! (not that that's retro) :)
ReplyDeletefun! exciting! good luck next week chica!!! xox
ReplyDeletegood! that's a good group of photos, very colorful and interesting theme
