Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair





Today was the last day of the fair. It was a fantastic event, very busy and I thoroughly enjoyed exhibiting. It was the first time I had my own stand and I was very excited. Had such great feedback from the visitors and made some great sales and contacts. What a great weekend!

I have posted some photos of my stand!
