I took about a dozen of my leather journals and notebooks to the local market this morning. A friend of mine, who makes jewelry has a little booth set up downtown and has offered me space there. She’ll be there until October, so it will be a continuous thing. I’m really grateful for this chance to give my books a more local exposure, as the majority of my customers are from the USA and abroad.
Here’s my little setup…

That’s wonderful…good luck with it all.
Your books look great on that nice chest. Best of luck with the market – I hope you do really well.
Thanks so much Carol and Su!
It’s going well!
So beautiful Bev! I so love your blog. Markets are a great way to ‘expand your customer base’…..ugh hehehe. You can’t take the business course out of the girl.
It seems your business is growing and growing which is fantastic. I’m about to design a line of silk scarves! Very exciting but also terrifying. I’ve had so many people ask if I print fabric designs of my stuff…so I’m giving it a go for Spring this year. Keep up the beautiful binding! Cheers.
I love your journals. The textures of the covers on the wicker box look so “touchable” !
Thank you Colleen and Susannah!
