Baby’s First Craft Fair

My very first stall at Alexandra Nurseries in Penge, SE London. Spot Series 1, 2 and 4 plus stall specials Rag Wreath Kit, Wheat Hot Bottles and Rosemary Hand Warmers

No longer a stall virgin! At the beginning of December 2023 I held my very first Cranford Cabinet stall at the lovely Alexandra Nurseries Christmas Market. Helped massively by local creative neighbour and stall veteran Juliet from Kimono Kraft, we managed to set up ‘sewing corner’ with both our stalls in the cute, up-cycled and beautifully plant-adorned Alexandra Nurseries covered outdoor space.

Selling my first items was EPIC! It was also brilliant to meet the other supportive and encouraging stallholders, get lovely feedback, hand out loads of cards, soak up the xmassy atmos. and be able to call in the cavalry down the road, AKA Iain, when it peed so much with rain in the afternoon that the market closed a little earlier than expected.

My video shows The Cranford Cabinet stall in it’s eclectic setting of random tables, plants and garden paraphernalia. A big thanks to the Alexandra Nurseries team, Juliet and the other lovely traders. An even bigger thanks to my first ever customers, you made me very happy and I can’t wait to do it all again!
