Yipeeeeeeeeeee! Best Ever Sales at Spring Garden Show in Malvern

  • Posted on May 11, 2009 at 1:39 pm

Hi Everyone

I have just had the most fantastic weekend at the RHS Spring Garden Show in Malvern!

I was right next to the exhibitors gardens. Before going to the show I saw the gardens on Gardeners World and thought they looked fantastic, however when you are actually there, they look even better. The colours of the flowers and the textures all mixed together were out of this world.

Also for once the weather was not too bad either. It was a bit windy on Saturday and my business cards made nice confetti floating in the wind but on Sunday the skies were blue and the wind for once had gone to sleep. I couldn’t do the Thursday and the Friday due to having children commitments but talking to the other artists Friday was extremely windy and fun was had by all keeping their wares on the tables!

I must say a big thank you to Steve Boffy who runs Boffy Art Fairs. You can always rely on him. You turn up to whatever fair he is organising and you know you are going to be looked after and that your table is ready to set up with the jewellery. It was also great to have a Pims on Saturday night and get a chance to meet the rest of the team. Thanks Steve.

Right now back to the jewellery. I love meeting everyone and gauge what people think of my jewellery. It was also great to meet people who bought my jewellery last year at the show and had come back to buy more. I must be doing something right!!!

I was rushed off my feet all day on Saturday and went home a very tired but happy person as my sales had reached the best ever for a day out with Boffy Art Fairs. Sunday was also fantastic as well and I also managed to get a bit of a suntan.

Well I cannot relax just yet as my next event is going to be a jewellery night at Cliff hotel in Ludlow. I need to ring up and find out if I have to do a speech on the night. Yikes – not done a speech yet at an event but all of you that know me know that I can talk the hind leg of a donkey so it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

Well I better go and sort out my stock and make loads more now as so many of you at the Malvern Show went home with some of my jewellery.

Bye for now.

A busy day on Saturday was had by all!!

Hi Everyone

Well I have had hardly any time to think let alone make jewellery. At the weekend I was in Worcester High Street with the Boffy Art Fair and was kept really busy. I was that busy on Saturday that I ran out of business cards and had to phone for some more from hubby who had to bring them in!

On Monday I picked up the remaining handmade bookmarks from a lady called Liz who belongs to a book club that had a meeting the previous week. Thanks Liz for selling so many bookmarks for me. I hope you and your friends enjoy using them!!!

Today I have been to Unity in Evesham to drop off the prom hair pins and some bracelets to include ones that men wear. They have gone down a storm and the girls from Unity have also given me some ideas for future designs. Surfer necklaces coming up!!!

I then quickly came home and made 3 more turquoise necklaces in readiness for the Spring Garden Show in Malvern before having to pick up my daughter to go to Birmingham Children’s Hospitol for a routine check on her heart. Her brother had dialated cardiomyopathy 4 years ago and she has to be checked every 18 months to see that she is ok as it is something that can run in the family. For those of you that know what DC is I am very lucky. My son made a full recovery and he is now 6 years old.

The people that work in the hospitol are fantastic but the hospitol itself is horrible and I hate going. Somebody get rid of the child’s voice in the lift telling you when you get to ground floor, level 1 or 2. She is so sad when she speaks and it always gives me the shivers.

Back to more cheerful things. Tomorrow I am meeting up with a mate of mine for chill time in the morning. I will then be coming back home and making more turquoise necklaces. They sold really well last year and I had none left. Knowing my luck I will be left with all of them this year.

On Friday I will be prepping for the weekend. I am again with the Boffy Art Fair but in Malvern High Street on Saturday and Bewdley on Sunday and Monday. If you are around please come and visit us as there are a few new artists and craft people that have joined us and their work is fantastic.

Well I’m off now – I should be putting the kids to bed and it is already 10 mins past their bedtime.

Easter egged out!!!!

Hi Everyone

Well it has been a busy week for me. More so with children rather than jewellery!!!! I am all Easter-egged out!

However today I have managed to add to my Spring collection which will be taken to the Spring Garden Show in Malvern at the beginning of May. I am now dreaming, eating and designing semi-precious turquoise necklaces.

I was there last year and it was fantastic as the Boffy Art Fair was next to the designer gardens and all the arts and craft people were really busy. I hope the weather was as good it was last year as we had a mini heat wave.

Tomorrow I have a kid free day – yipeeee!!!! so I am visiting Ki Beauty in Worcester to re-vamp my display. They currently have all my display that I use for my art fairs so I have ordered some new display which will look fantastic in their shop. If you are wanting your nails revamped, a tan or a new you in beauty this is the place to go in Worcester.

Well back to designing and making turquoise necklaces!!!
