It was a gorgeous day on Saturday, there were many handmade lovers floating through the Yarraville markets,and all of our stallholders had big smiles on their faces. The rain held off until after we packed up - so all in all the universe was taking great care of us makers.
The SUNDAY market IN MAY has been cancelled - as the Masonic Hall accidently double booked! SO Saturday the 14th May will be the next big market day.



Beautiful Buttercup Ink products...I bought my daughter a "things in my head" notebook for her birthday on Wednesday as she is a budding song writer, and told me just the other day how her songs "just come into her head!"....perfect! Vari is very talented and has just launched her new website and a brand new range.Check it out over here....

We also were very lucky to have Alana play her clarinet for us. After some initial hesitation, ALana summed up her courage and took to the stage. She did a great job, and we are hoping to see more of her and her talent!!


Carmel from Faces-ta-dah! was busy painting faces all day long, and as usual we had our monthly colouring in competition in full swing so that parents can shop in peace.
