Picture 2

Morning all! Yesterday I was a proper busy beee… Woke up early to get to London Bridge for the Kioskiosk Stall and I was sharing it with Andrew Colling who makes screen printed t-shirts (I like his pug ones!) The day started a bit slow with tourists and families looking a bit lost and we’re directing them to the Design Museum during most of the day….erm do we look we’re form the tourist information??? We made a big sign to actually direct people to come and have a look inside, the only down side is that there was no signage to inform people what was going on. However I can’t complain been sitting out in the sun for 6 hours and making stuff at the same time, chatting to people and having lunch outside. AAhhh.

I sold quite a few things 🙂 I will upload photos next week, in the mean time I’m going to carry on making new bags! If you’re around come and see me there’ll be lots of discounts so don’t miss out!  now i’m very inspired to do more art and craft markets…sooner the better while the weather is nice.

And next….Pikaland Giveaway is now here! Go to the blog and leave a comment and the winner will be announced on the 25th August. Do it do it!

Finally,  we went to see Grizzly Bear last night at the KoKo. They are so good…! Now I want to see them again…. Free tickets again Sam. hehex

Messy table

lots of people.

Last night turned out really well, I had lots of comments from people about my chicken work . Apart from the late running of things, which always seems to happen, I tucked in with the t shirt workshop along with Olja’s friends and more people  joined the table to have a doodle. I gave all mine away!  There were live bands playing through out the night and I had too much wine (ooops) and ate lots of fried eggs with mayo. Yum. If you’re ever around the area (Aldgate East) you should go to the social club, it’s a cool venue and the people running it are nice too.

Then the night ended up with me pretty merry, running around the streets of London then we all went to the best bagel shop down at Bricklane. Can’t go wrong with a nice chunk of salt beef bagel. Thumbs up from meee! If you want to see more pics go to my facebook page.
