Market Wrap!
What a lovely day!
Mordialloc went all out for the food and wine festival today
and the crowds came in their 1000's.
and the crowds came in their 1000's.
There was music, food, plenty to drink and even an upside-down stilt balancing gymnast.
The Main Street Market was packed and we were kept busy for most of the day.
I was lucky to be placed beside two lovely, lovely stalls again.
This time it was Lis from Ernie & Bird who makes lots of very pretty baby things, wheat bags, lovely birdy mobiles and these gorgeous newborn packs -
On my other side was Jeanne from Mini Vintage who had these very cool screen printed tot tees and my favourite Rockabye Baby! CD's !
Here are their Facebook pages -
Why not go and show you love for handmade!
Thank you, Thank you {again} to my wonderful friends who came down to see me and to Mum and Barb for letting me go off for a lunch break and a peek at the lovely stalls!
A special mention to another fellow Madeit seller - Oh deer! - It was so nice so see your lovely, lovely jewellery in person. I have my eye on this one...

Handstamped Necklace - Yes Please!
I need one of these. I want it immediately, but I'm going to restrain myself until baby #2 comes along. Might be a bit cheeky to stamp the wrong initial now, wouldn't it? I wonder if they will stamp their birth dates on the back, too? Like it? You can find this cute necklace, and others, here.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Easter Trees
Last year I made an Easter tree and hung handmade felt birds on it, as seen in the first pic. In my search to show you some other great Easter trees I found out that the concept originated in Germany. "Osterbaum", the German name for Easter trees, are usually made out of the cut branches of pussy willow or other flowering bushes which are brought into the house and placed in vases. They are then decorated with hand painted wooden eggs, or hollowed out real eggs.
Also, the small living trees and bushes that are already planted around the outside of the house are often decorated with plastic, wooden or real painted eggs and wreaths. How fantastic!
Have a sweet day!
