Ace Posted February 28, 2007 Sounds great limpet! I will try my best to attend As shroomy asked - any ideas on price? I would probably be there more for a brouse, but if something tickles my pickle, I might have to make a purchase Would you be interested in trades on the day? Thanks for bringing something exciting to our little city! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Prices vary from $30 - $250 (I think! I should be able to remember but I can't as we only did all the pricing recently and h ave only done 2 markets since in Syd). Some things I can remember is a small beaded mask was $45, I think beaded deers were approx $100. But please come and browse and def let us know you are from the forum. We have some larger yarn prints. I think they are 75x75cm, absolutely beautiful. We don't bring these to the markets but hopefully we will have some pictures of them for people to see very soon. Would def be interested in talking some trading too. Now that we have moved we would like to get an entho garden going. At the moment we only have edible & gourmet shrooms. Cheers!

The Tinkerer Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) are you guys going to be doing anymore markets in sydney or on the central coast. They look like some great pieces of art, but unfortunately canberra is too far away. Edited March 1, 2007 by The Tinkerer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

limpet Posted March 1, 2007 are you guys going to be doing anymore markets in sydney or on the central coast. They look like some great pieces of art, but unfortunately canberra is too far away. Yes definately more markets in Sydney and possibly some on the central and south coasts (bermagui/pambula etc). Will post here to let you all know. We unfortunately didn't think to do this last time we are in sydney (we were at glebe markets). Hopefully we will be back at Glebe within a month or so or possibly paddington as well. We also hope to get all the pieces in an online store asap but we are limited as we don't have our own internet connection yet. Satellite internet has taken ages to organize and just today we have been told we may be waiting another 28 days until our sat is installed! Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Limpet, glad your coming back to glebe as i only live around the corner. Like you mentioned, if only i'd heard about this last time! Anyways make sure to put a post up or pm me next time your going to be at glebe markets, or anywhere in the city in that case and i'll definately be there, i'll rally a few interested people together too. Hope you have a great time in canberra tomorrow. Peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

limpet Posted March 13, 2007 Thanks for a chat man!Ace Thanks for popping by Ace. It was great to meet you! BTW there was someone else who came at the end of the day on behalf of his brother (who either lived in sydney or further away). He wanted to buy the medium yarn print with the deer in the centre and 4 peyote surrounding. If this is you can you PM me? Also, anyone else who would like to download a comprehensive list of items we have while we get our online store going please pm also. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
