So... yesterday Mary, the ridiculously awesome knitter chick, and I had our very own (half) table at Philly's R5 Punk Rock Flea Market. This was our first time at any type of craft market! Being the "pro-craft-inators" that we are, we were exhausted, but proud, as we hawked the goods that we created during the late night before the market and in the weeks just prior to the big day. The sale was kind of a bust, as people only seemed interested in buying used clothes and VHS (don't ask me why) tapes and not well crafted and unique finds, but we had fun!
Here's some of the goods we had on sale:
Mary's Ridiculously Awesome Knitting
And here are my assorted goods:
Yummy Vegan Treats
Monkey Bread
Chocolate Truffles
Mary also represented Northern Liberties Soy Cafe with their delicious Vegan chocolate chip and oatmeal-cranberry cookies. Yum!
Embroidery
Clothes
Thrifted purple velvet skirt from Goodwill with hand-made fabric flowers from my fabric stash (seared at the edges) and embroidered... it didn't sell, which I am actually happy about as it will now have a home in my wardrobe...
We had a talented digital artist by the name of Kristin Grossi from Marilla1918.etsy.com as our neighbor. It was dangerous to have her as our neighbor, as we basically used any of the $ we made on her designs. Mary got this crazy cute robot framed print and I got her Woodland Friends and Octopus prints to decorate our house. She was also super sweet. Check her out on Etsy for some handmade goods for the holidays.
