New Art Supplies And Work

In recent weeks, I've updated a few things for my Crafty Pegs stall at the Creative Markets.

And yesterday, I went out and bought the really big container in the main picture because I couldn't fit everything in the other box. The other box is being used for my stock, so I don't have to cart it all around in 2 boxes. how cool is that?

And I'm also doing new work too. There's hand-painted coathangers and I'm also trying out magnet-bonbons. That's where I make up 6 magnets with the same design - but different colours - and put them into a wrapper much like a Christmas bon-bon... sounds good? I think it does... and I'll be selling them for around $8.00 each. The coathangers are going for $10 each or 2 for $15. :D

Well it sounds like you have your work cut out for you

@digitalrn Yeah it does... I have varnished the 3 coathangers that are finished in the below right picture there and wrapped them up for the market. And now they're put away. Now, I'm just painting up the other 3 or 4 that I began the other night to see how many I can get done by Sunday. :D

Now, it's a matter of getting as many Magna-Peg Bon-Bons done up as possible... they'll be a real bargain; and something I can do at the Queen Beez Craft Group too. Nice, quick and easy, seeing I only paint one side... and all I need to do is get a good big box to be able to fill with magnets to dry, then varnish the lot in done day, and then do a huge wrap session... and they'll be done. :D

*Phew* The fun of doing the markets. :D

@wendyfrost Thank you both for your lovely comments. Yes, I'm always busily thinking of new ways to make my stall at the Creative Markets look better and my products more appealing to the public.

It's hard work, but I love it. :D
