preparations...

...for the Grand Christmas Bazaar - or at least for our little corner of it.

We've been busy making stock, taking photos, printing labels & tags, working on our stall layout(s), planning, trying to think of all the things we could possibly need, getting together some decorations (can't have a Christmas market stall without at least a little tinsel)...

cupcakes & dinosaurs...

Had a fabulous time at the Flinders Street Market on the weekend. On Saturday I spent a fair portion of the day getting my hands dirty at the Making Creatures from Clay workshop in the centre of the market. Naomi from Wonkie Knee Art & Susanna from really useful pots ran the workshop & the lovely Rene from the Sunshine Van provided us with yummy chocolate cupcakes to keep our strength up :)

I was attempting to create a dragon, but it somehow morphed into a cute stegosaurus-type dinosaur creature as I worked. He went home with Susanna to dry out & get fired (that doesn't sound right, lol) - can't wait to see him finished. Any name suggestions for the little guy?

First (iPhone) photo by me, others by Mum & Kathryn.
We also had a stall - or two actually - which you can see photos of here & here.
