Just because that woman didn’t like it
I have a wee spot in The
Church Street Craft market, where I do a 5 hour
Shift on a Monday afternoon ( You’re Welcome to come visit )
I am there with some other
Crafters and over the last year we have become like a family of sorts, looking
out for each other, helping each other and enjoying our time.
We all know about each others
Crafts and how they do them, so that we can explain to customer, how they are
created, where it was made and so on.
Each one of us do something
different and we have a varied selection, from recycled Repainted plastic
containers to Ceramics using Different Clays & porcelain, Sewing and
embroidery , watercolour painting, Screen Printing, hand made teddy bears and
so on.
I am one of the more mature
crafters there, but some of the young ones just can’t get their heads around,
some customers and how they view our work and the unkind things that they say
I have heard it all, Things like “Why , would
you want that, …….. I can get that cheaper from eBay, No, That’s not my style………
Just because someone doesn’t
like a piece, doesn’t mean that it’s not Pretty, or Well made or Hand made or
Painted, or Sown by hand in the early hours of the morning.
Please people, each piece has been made
especially, Each piece is an one off thing, Time, sweat, Love and mistakes and
experiments have gone into that even before it reached the stage, where it is
now, for sale in the Shop. Plus much more has gone into it, than you will ever
know, so if it a little more expensive, than the Local shop or eBay or the
pound shop.
Please remember, each piece
means something to the crafter, who made it
So just because the woman
didn’t like it, just means that there is someone else out there, who will buy
it, who will take it home and put it somewhere special, because it is special
to them
Made with Love, to be loved
Forever
