    Things can only get better !!

    Have been busy this last weekend selling fairies - well i say selling fairies it might have helped if any people actually turned up to the fairs we did !!!

    The one we did on Saturday ended up being in a room about the size of my living room , upstairs and on a road where there was no parking !!!!!

    Think  about 6 people came through the door !!!

    A drunk from the pub downstairs bought one of our musical fairies then bought it back half an hour later as it wasn't working !!!

    Ended up having to give him a replacement even though it had been working when he took it !! Am sure he overwound it , but what can you do ??!!!!!

    Sunday we were at a mind , body and Spirit fair in a village hall. We did OK but the last 2 hours had no-one through the door , good job there was a party going on in the room next door so we could sing a long to lots of great 80's tunes !!!!!!!!!!!!

    Monday was another mind , body and spirit fair in a different village hall. Unfortunately there were about 7 people through the door all night even though the organiser had done lots of advertising.

    So think all in all once we had paid for the stalls etc we didn't have enough money left to replace the few things we sold , let alone come away in profit !!  

    HOW DEPRESSING !!!!!

    On the good side though we have actually had a few internet orders so we are keeping our fingers crossed that we will get few more before Xmas, then we can go and have a good "social" time at our fairs and not get fed up when we don't make a profit !!!!!!!

    Like i said at the start things can only get better - i hope !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hey Debs
    It may be something in the air! We've been having terrible luck selling tickets to our upcoming Masquerade Ball to benefit our Youth Arts program here in west virginia... This too shall pass. We're dealing with Mercury in retrograde ...
    Good luck!
