How are you?!
I can not believe its been 2 months since my last blog post! That sounded like a terrible confession but truth be told I've changed my working hours in my day job so Ive been trying to readjust my work-work-life balance & I must admit I've been finding it a touch hard. I work on average 8.5 hours a day with an hour commute there & back so by the time tea and washing/cleaning bathroom/living room/admin is done 9 out of 10 times I'm just pooped!
I've also moved out of The Duke Street Bazaar. Sadly it's changed direction as a business & it's just not for me. I say sadly as I loved what the shop was & all the other independents in it but things change and sometimes you just have to roll with it.
I'm also not doing The Winter Arts Market in St. Georges Hall this year either. It was the highlight of my business year last year but sadly not to be this year.
However....changing perspective on a situation is good for the soul. (This blog post has ended up so big I'm spreading it over 2!)
I did an amazing little fair yesterday (huge thank you to everyone that purchased from me!) down on Lark lane at The Old Police Station! Its the first time I felt really Christmassy as there where classic Christmas songs playing and the organisers had provided us all with mince pies! I also participated in a collaboration with #findmybox and have firmly had a motivational fire burning beneath me.
So...first amazing positive note!
There's a new kid in the Baltic Triangle block called Hobo Kiosk! My first ever craft fair was with hobo only last November & now I stock their beautiful, quirky, vintage treasure chest of a shop!
Located on Bridgewater Street its a real Liverpool experience open Wednesday - Saturday 11am-6pm. Their opening night was phenomenal, to the point that we had to leave at one point as we could not fit any more people in the shop!
Personal wise my best friends got married.
I was Chief Bridesmaid and my boy was the Best Man. After dress fittings, decoration making, stag and hen-do's, speech writing and everything else that goes into a wedding the day itself was just brilliant!
We sang, we danced out of shoes, ate and drank too much and paid for it dearly the next day! ha ha!
I did catch the bouquet but I can't hear wedding bells in the near future!
I'll be sharing more on whats been going on in the next few days but tomorrow is our last craft meet of this year at The Everyman!
