Church Markets

There’s a lot to be said for the church markets around Brisbane these days; they’re not all crocheted face-washers and doilies. They are becoming just a little more ‘hip’ and popular, featuring lovely felted items, handmade jewellery, vintage fabrics transformed into bags, handmade books and other treasures! True, the face-washes are still there, but now they’re in good company!

I am a regular attendee of such church markets, selling handmade treasures similar to what can be found in my jellygnite etsy shop. The advantage of these markets are many - the very reasonable fees, the wonderfully unrushed community atmosphere and the fact that you are also supporting charitable organisations. And because there is such a small cost to the stall-holder, your profits from your sales can be bigger!

My upcoming markets are on Saturday the 3^rd May at Stafford Heights Baptist Church and Sat 10^th May at St William’s Grovely. Take a new look at church markets!
