Thank-you's

It was a busy weekend for the two dolly girls at the Dalplex Christmas Craft Market! It is with residual fatigue that I pop in now to share a few pictures and to take a moment to thank all of our friends and family for their support this Fall as we worked our fingertips bloody to prepare for the season.

It was great to see so many of you out at the show! Your support and encouragement are very much appreciated. We hope you enjoyed the show - the exhibits were all lovely, presented by inspiring crafters hosting an inspirational expanse of wares, treats and services. Hopefully you were able to put a little dent into your Christmas shopping!

All in all a great season and we look forward to next year!

Between Shows

Well, we're minus a few binkies, balls, bibs and dolls following the Acadia show. This week we'll be busy replenishing our stocks in prep for the Dalplex show this upcoming weekend. If you have a chance to make it to this show, we highly recommend it - the vendor list is awesome!! We'll be posting photos of new dolls in the 2011 Craft fair album on our Facebook Page as they are completed - so check back often. Let us know if there's something you would like us to set aside for you to pick up at the show - we're always happy to see our blogging friends at shows!! If you're not able to make it to the show, send us an email at thirdstreethandcrafters(at)gmail(dot)com or by selecting from the options in the "contact TSH" link on the right sidebar.

We'll quickly share a few photos from the Acadia show, then back to doll making!

TSH junior exhibitor

This little dolly got a little tired part way through the show and decided to take matters into her own hands. It's always sad when dolls do that...

Third Street Corner Store

We continue to list items in our shop - it's so much work!!! I see people who have over 1000 items listed and I have no idea how these sellers can do this!! We're trying to compile some listing guidelines for each of our doll collections to ensure that all of the pertinent details are captured - in addition to the fun little stories we like to include with the dolls. 

Then there's the pictures! 

We have about twenty more dolls to list, plus a ton of soft play balls, bibs, and binkies. 

I'm thinking of giving up sleeping.

Or breathing.

If you list your items in an online shop - you know what I'm talking about. 

Here's what we have so far ...

Baby Shower !!

We recently had an order for a baby shower present.  We were super excited for a chance to use this new 'wolf in sheep's clothing' flannelette which makes lovely burp pads, bibs and tag binkies.  And of course our always favorite alien robots got to play a part too.

This gorgeous flannel also made for cozy PJ's for the baby-to-be's Sleepy Time Doll.

I think the baby will love this sweet little soft play ball with its enticingly vibrant ribbon tags.

But a sweet little dolly sized bed finishes the set, as this little guy is tuckered out from a morning of playing ball with mom.

Sweet dreams,

Little One.

Note:  we will be adding bibs, binkies, burp pads and more Sleepy Time dolls to the Corner Store over the next while.  Please stop by at your leisure!
