Etsy Meet Up and Ella's Top


Went to Fitzroy on Saturday to meet other Etsy sellers. It was a great afternoon, though I was one of the first to leave, but next time I will make it so I don't have to leave so early! There are some pictures on Flickr, thanks to Shara Lambeth - I did take my camera but took no shots as I had my hands full with cards, samples, cup of tea etc!

I also went to the design market as per the previous post, but again took no pictures, maybe I am just getting lazy. That was also very good but very crowded. Some really great work out there people are doing, I am making a concerted effort to buy handmade and/or limited edition artists work lately (if I am not giving something I have made myself) and will encourage others to do the same. It is generally so much nicer than buying mass produced I think.

Here is a picture of my beautiful niece Ella in one of my samples.
