Advent 2024 - Day 12

[wiseheart]

Just a quick post because I'm well and truly done in.

The fair was a great success. I haven't sold everything, but I sold a great deal and raised more money than last year - not by much, but more nonetheless - and gave away the rest to my (ex-)colleagues as gifts. The only items that didn't sell well were the embroidered cards, but that's okay: that way I can send out the prettiest ones to those who have asked for one, and the rest goes to my choir mates a gifts.

So, all is left is the concert on Saturday, and then I'll have no extra stuff to do before Christmas - blessing!

There will be pics of the fair eventually, and I'll link them to a future post, I promise.

I had forgotten that the fair was this week. I'm so glad all your hard work paid off. A little extra cash in your pocket at this time of year will never go amiss. It's also very gratifying to know that your work is good enough for people to be willing to spend money on it.

Actually, all the money goes to charity — that is my way to contribute. But I had fun, and it was encouraging to see how much people liked my stuff. There was one lady who showed me a keyring she had brought from me last year an is still using. :))
