The humble hanger

At the moment we have been consumed with preparations for our biggest market to date. Its the three day long Magnolia square market to be held at the Malvern Town Hall Thursday 6Th to Sat the 8th. This is quite a big deal for Sweet William, we have got a few markets under our belt now, but we have never put ourselves in this position before! Getting ready is both exciting and daunting all at the same time. I'm sitting here in New Zealand wishing desperately that I could join the girls in their preparations. The skype phone is fritzing out it has been used so much with back and forth conversations. We are consumed with how to make our table look good and how to display our items. This flickr group is really helpful if you need some ideas: http://www.flickr.com/groups/stallstyle/ .
It got me thinking of the good ol handy hanger, a really neat tool for display. Our next big stall set-up will have include some of these finds for sure.

I have an aunt who use to crochet hangers and slippers for everyone in the family. It's cute... I bet in a hundred years, if crochet held up that long, an archeologist could probably relate our entire family together by the crochet hangers in everyone's closet.

That is why we have listed these pretty tags in our Etsy shop . They are digital downloads for your own personal use.

I had Contry Style Magazine come and do a shoot at my home in May... a few months later and the issue finally hits the shelves. Yay! I am very pleased with the way it all turned out. Sharyn Cairns took some wonderful photographs and captured our home beautifully, while Virginia Imhoff wrote a lovely piece about all the bits and pieces in our home and how much we have traveled etc. The ' where there's tea there's hope ' print got a big feature in the shoot and on the editors letter, which we are so pleased about and the orders have already coming rolling in. Ooooh I must say it is quite a thrill to see my own home and work in print, I am most flattered!
