Yesterday was one of those market days that reminded me why I love doing this so much. 🥹🌹
Not just because of the earrings, the candles, the pretty little stall setup or the sales…
But because of the people. ❤️
My bestie Gabi, her hubby Lui and her gorgeous girl Annabeth surprised me by coming up from Jervis Bay to see me at the market and honestly… they absolutely made my day! 🥹❤️
Then we had a beautiful returning customer come by who I remembered from one of our very first Shell Cove markets. She bought SO much that day 😂 and yesterday she came back to visit us again, picked up more goodies from Rachel’s candles and even grabbed a pair of our Christmas wreath earrings because she loves my earrings. 🥹
We had such a lovely chat — especially because she also lives out my way in the Hills District — and then she told us she’ll be coming to see us again at our Christmas market at Hawkesbury next month! 🎄🌹
And that’s honestly one of my favourite things about markets…
The familiar faces.
The returning customers.
The friends and family who surprise you.
The colleagues who pop in.
The people who stop for a chat.
The stories and connections that happen across a little market stall.
Every visit, every purchase, every kind word and every “I’ll see you at the next one” means more than you probably realise. ❤️
It’s the support of all of you that makes getting up, setting up and showing up absolutely worth it.
So from me, Rachel, Sue and our little market crew…
Thank you. 🥹🌹
