Craft fair crochet

Well, tomorrow is the big day, my first attempt at selling my crochet wares at a small craft fair; unfortunately, I can't go as I'm working, but my lovingly crafted goods have been delivered to a trusted fellow seller, who I think may buy several items herself! I will let you have a peek at what I made; something someone said to me about gifts for Christmas inspired me to use a heart motif and to make a string of them which you could hang on the wall as I have, or on a door or even on the Christmas tree. I made some in bright red and dusky pink, both are good 'heart' colours :-)

I made some single hearts too, in either red or gold, perfect for the Christmas tree.

I've also tried some different combinations of star colours; green and red with a lone white star

and red and white; I think this is my favourite, it look so festive and cheery.

And here are all my flower corsages, looking pretty together

I finished these off with a nice crocheted backing and a proper brooch clasp, so they will stay put and look fresh.

I wish I had had a little more time to make a few more things, but I'm pleased with what has been sent to the fair, so cross your fingers for me for a few happy buyers.......I'll let you know how it goes :-)

God luck with the fair ~ hope that your items go down well. I remember how I felt when I first sold plants. Would that it were nearer I would be tempted by one of your star garlands :)

Oh I hope that went well. I've just caught up as I've been busy knitting for my own stall tomorrow, just finished. It's certainly the time of year for selling and you have some very seasonal things, they must have been irrisistable.
