@AppleQueenJewellery I’ll be doing Mill Road Winter Fair in Cambridge on the 6th Dec 10.30 - 4.30pm, we’ll have to compare notes afterwards to see which is better. (Why can’t they organise these things so that we could do both?) Good luck, Duxford is supposed to be very good.

I’ve got my last Fair too on Saturday, its always a busy one due to it been right in the center of town and don’t have to pay to get in. I’m just a tad worried about the weather and not the fact that I’m busy because its always been a good one for me.
Thanks Sasha, I’d like to know how yours goes, I’ve not done that one before, is it all outdoors? Hope you do well. Duxford was good the first year I went but a little quieter last year - hoping it improves this year, nice atmosphere though. I can mention the clashing dates in my feedback to the organisers.

@AppleQueenJewellery, not all of the Mill Road fair is outdoors but the indoor space is very limited so you are much more likely to get a pitch if you are prepared to be outdoors (and some of what they call indoors is in a large marquee they put up). I did it last year, my stall was a last minute addition in a new venue so wasn’t advertised anywhere but still managed to sell 30 pieces. This year my pitch is in the main grouping at the start of the road (near town/ Parker’s piece) so I’m hoping to sell even more. Weather is looking good for it… Sasha
I have a fair on the Bracknel side of Wokingham. Th emain road outside will be closed for at elast an hour for the toy run, thousands of people on motorbikes streaming past for ages, taking prezzies to Barnardos. Lets hopelots of shoppers get stuck at the fair and buy loads.

I’m at the Victoria Hall in Hanley on Sunday 7th. In the foyer, great position with lots of natural light and in easy reach of a coffee. Perfect

This photo was from last year when I wasn’t there so please imagine my glass in place of all those cushions. That will be my table on Sunday.
I am doing my second ever Craft fair this weekend (first was last week lol) at Seevic College sports gym, London Road, Benfleet, Essex. Hoping to do a bit better than last week, hopefully there will be more people attending this one

I’m at Chorlton Arts Festival on Saturday, held at St Clements Church in Chorlton, S. Manchester, 11-4. I’ll be one of the few crazies who opted to use our own gazebos and have an outdoor pitch.
How did iut go @JacquelineOJewellery ? I’m planning to get to my first fair in the spring. Did you get much interest? Was the PayPal reader a good move? Thanks.
I am 
doing a Christmas fair tomorrow 
Hi Sunboedesigns,a few sales and had interest with possible commissions so wasn’t a total waste of time, was outdoors and it peed it down all afternoon and freezing cold lol, so wont be booking any more outdoor events in winter that’s for sure.
The paypal reader yes a god send well worth the money and so easy to use, I’ve used it more times at home than at the fair, but so pleased that i got it.
Hope your fair goes well

Off to Lincoln tomorrow
Did my first craft fair at Southend’s C12th Prittlewell Priory recently. Good reaction. Helpful stallholders. I’ll post new, hopefully worthwhile, fairs as i hear of them.
Im not selling at any more Xmas fairs but thought vintage fairs the rest of the year would be a good idea.
Good luck to all still with fairs to attend. It feels odd not making anything or writing lists of things to do.
Anyone in the Essex / Herts / North London area?
