Yesterday at Carrara Markets

Liv and I were at the office at Carrara Markets in the line up at 4.30am. Others had been there since 3.30 to get a numbered ticket in the hopes of getting the best site.The office opened at 5.00 and by just after 6.00 we began setting up our stall. The rules stipulate you must be ready by 7.00am and are not to leave before 4.00pm.Carrara has about 500 undercover market stalls (very well organized and great facilities). The other stall holders were really friendly and helpful which we newbies appreciated. A big thanks to all!

Liv's beanies were popular and her Beverage Beanies attracted heaps of attention (such a cool idea). Liv was taking commissions from early in the day. (remember, if you want something special we are happy to oblige). I was thrilled so many people loved my aprons. It was great seeing people pose in the mirror. My genuine retro fabric and buttoned cushions also sold well.

Liv's busy working on commissions.

However, although we rated Carrara Markets a success, we've decided that an arty, original market might be more our style as very few of the stalls had original/ handmade things and we so love meeting and sharing with other artisans.

Loved this style beanie so much she bought all Liv's stock!!!

Liv's new Beverage Beanies got lots of attention!
