Good Morning on this wonderful sunny Sunday - the last one before our first ever Happy Valley Artisan Market at Clarence Mill!!
Phew … well what a few weeks! It’s been a rush, but we have the makings of
a fantastic market on Sunday, 5th October.
Adding to the advertising listed in previous
blogs, we are now on the Bollington Town Council web-site. Banners and new posters will be going up this
week and I am still busy making the bunting, blowing up balloons and running
around like the mad hatter at Alice ’s
Tea Party. Good Idea … Hang on whilst I
make a cuppa and grab one of my new addictions – a CurlyWurly ha ha!
We have 15 traders (small I know, but it is a
lack of space … not a lack of interest from local Artisans, Artists and
Craftspeople – we could have filled the space at least 3 times – the traders
not successful this time will pop up at future markets – so that we keep the
mix alive and interesting for everyone). Thank you to all traders who have contacted me for a stall - I am so sorry I couldn't fit you all in ....
This Market on 5th October will
have a wonderful mix of:
Textiles; mosaics; ceramics; pottery; clay
jewellery; fine art; wood; paper and glass (something for every age group and
such a varied choice of items … the quality is of a very high level).
All the Traders are local and all items are
handmade locally too! Debra and I have
been very strict with the profile for trading on the Market as we want it to
showcase the amazing people of Bollington and surrounding areas.
We
are also making a provision at the Market for you to give Debra and I your
feedback … what you liked; didn’t like and also what you would like to
see. Come and see me in my Gazebo and
pick up a Feedback Form and have a chat.
Also, don’t forget to pick up your free raffle ticket; balloon and other
info.
It is now up to the successful Traders to make it a memorable day .. with pretty stalls, high class items and fun and laughter ... no pressure then!!
PLEASE
TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY ABOUT OUR MARKET – THANK YOU
PLEASE SEE OUR NEW POSTER ... IF YOU CAN GET IT OUT THERE WE WOULD BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL .. THANK YOU
