It's amazing how fast the body adapts to changes. I took a break from doing weekend bazaars for a mere two weeks and now that I started again, I'm exhausted and down with a cold. And it's only the first week that I'm back! But anyway, our location last week was against a backdrop of a painting of the Med Sea and you can spot my sister and husband in the picture, totally unaware that I've taken a picture. :) I've been thinking of coming up with a new set up as well as this current one is getting boring. Perhaps we'll have something new up this week.
Each time I attend a bazaar or fair, I'm really amazed by the people who are there. As sellers, whenever there's little pockets of time, we sometimes chat with each other and find out more about what the other party is doing. And I must say I'm really inspired and encouraged by some of these stories that I hear. In Singapore, it's quite a big and risky step to start up your own little business as the standard of living here is costly but I can see how there are many out there persevering on and working really hard. Quite motivating, especially during tough times of slow sales.
I foresee the rest of the year to be really hectic. 3 more phonics classes to go, an exam (my last one!) in less than 2 weeks, weekly meetings to plan for a week-long youth camp at the start of December and a couple of fairs and bazaars to attend all within the next 7 weeks. It'll be interesting to see how it all turns out. Till then! :)

Beautiful display! I like to see how everyone displays their jewelry!
Thanks Kathy! Your holiday-themed table is lovely too! Such a great idea to incorporate the little tree!
