Brisstyle Indie Designers Market

Saturday 10th December was The Quizzical Owl's first official BrisStyle market.

The day started out with rain, rain and more rain. It was bucketing down. We'd already packed the car, and I decided to head to Racecourse Rd to see what the weather was going to do. We got there, chatted to other stallholders, and waited for the rain to stop.

Our spot for the market was outside, hence the waiting!

The rain cleared up just as the market opened at 9am. Talk about perfect timing!

We had a fantastic day. We met crafty and non crafty people alike. I am so pleased that we stayed.

These will be available at the BrisStyle Indie Twilight market, 16th December

The Quizzical Owl's last market for 2011 is this Friday, 16th December. Between 5 and 9pm, I'll be in King George Square, in Brisbane City.

See you there!

My First BrisStyle Market

Friday night, the 25th November was the Racecourse Road Community Christmas Party. And, BrisStyle organised some market stalls as part of the festivities. There were also carols, readings, a band, a sausage sizzle (I missed these while in the UK, I tell you!), and crafty activities for the kids.

What a night! There were lots of people, families, out enjoying the beginning of the festive season. There's no denying that Christmas is almost upon us.

I became a member of BrisStyle a month or so ago. They have been nothing but kind, professional, helpful and knowledgeable. A seriously crafty, awesome bunch of ladies (there are no boys in BrisStyle - I'm sure they'd love to have some though!). It is such a pleasure to turn up at an event that is well run and well attended.

I'll be at the next two BrisStyle markets. On the 10th of December there is the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market. And then on the 16th of December, I'll be at the BrisStyle Indie Twilight Market in King George Square.

See you there!
