At this time of year when we are busy doing fairs and pop ups around Surrey, we have the difficult decision of what to take with us and how to display it to the best advantage. At most fairs we only have a 6ft x 2ft table and sometimes they are smaller still! This means we have to think laterally sometimes and over the years we’ve developed a strategy to make the most of our space by going up. Its almost become a bit of a challenge to see how much we can put out in the smallest space and it’s amazing how the space can be adapted with a bit of thought! It also means we have somewhere to hide behind when we are eating our hard earned sandwiches!!
On another note, everybody seems to be talking about flamingos after the flamingo march on Planet Earth (so funny) and we have our own flamingos in stock at the moment on cushions, lampshades and the hot water bottles that we sell at fairs at this time of year.
Something about these birds seem to grab peoples attention and apparently, this year, we can’t get enough of them! Certainly the cushion and lampshade combo in the middle picture is one of our best sellers, maybe because it will go with several different backdrops due to the combination of colours in the print. In fact, having just sold some of these at the fairs we did at the weekend, we’re off to make some more before this weekends fairs!
No rest for us at HemLiv HQ!! Back to work…
Love HemLiv xx
