The weekend at Wirksworth
Well the weekend at the craft do dah was brill!! It was in a small town in Derbyshire called Wirksworth It's an amazing festival of arts etc! It goes on for a few weeks but we just went up for the trail and it's really cool as loads of people in the town open up their houses and artists exhibit their work in these peoples front rooms!!! It's fairly bonkers really and totally cool!! 
Here's what I took, just before leaving the house I thought, ahh must take a piccie!!
We were in a lady called Janets house and she was really lovely and here's what it all looked like when it was displayed! our own wee shop!! I haven't done anything like this before and was soo excited! So excited I blocked alex out of the photo ( sozza alex! ) There was also a lady called Lousie in the dining room with her lovely handmade cards!
We managed to have a walk about the town on the sunday ( it was a whole weeked thang!) Some amazing art about, brilliant views and some really gorgeous houses!! It takes a bit of getting used to, walking into strangers houses but it's so fab!
Some artists had displays in shop windows, this dog was amazing!
and this hanging man!!
All in all a great time was had by all!! roll on next year!! I am so gagging to do another craft fair it was fab! and horrah to that! ( i am still excited can you tell, even more of these !! than usuall. )
Wahooh I think I got the link thing sorted! Link

your little shops looks FANTASTIC! well done and congrats on your first fair, sounds like a fab weekend...
Good for you! It sounds like a really great idea - I love snooping in peoples homes, so having the craft stalls inside would be such fun. I'm glad you had a really good time.
Wow! That must have been so much fun!
Ma said.
You clever old thing; it all looks fantastic. It's great to see craft making a comeback.
