an experience

Yesterday we went to the Spring fair

for which daughter and me worked so hard the last few weeks.

It really was a springy day with sunny weather

though still a bit cold

we had a table inside the building so we only saw sunshine.

But ...

there where very few people visiting

so we sold only a few items from our little "felt shop" 

Although we met and spoke to

some very nice people ! 

We gave our cards

and there might be some new customers

for a felt workshop.

( We had our table next the "chocolate" people

their son has a small company that makes

the most mmmmmmmmm delicious bonbons :

 well ..... ofcourse we tasted them ! )

Well we learned a great deal from this Spring fair experience.

You must be better prepared what kind of people you can expect

( stall holders and public )

before you "jump in"

Also the planning and preparing beforehand

takes a lot of time and thinking.

That doesn't mean we're sorry we did it : oh no !

Now we have a nice starting point for the next one ...

We are not supposed to earn a living selling our felt products

( only think of the time it takes, making these items )

but this way we might  extend, invest and grow in this

technique we both so love.
