Afternoon all, I hope you are safe, dry and warm.

Due to the current weather conditions I have decided that I won't be attending the Waihi Beach Saturday Farmers Market ultimate summer carnival tomorrow. Yes it is still on, there will be some changes, so please to follow them for updates on the event.

Be safe,
Maria

Today was a hard day for me, appointments in both Waihi Beach and Tauranga, but I keep working! I started an axolotl first thing this morning, then made four chicken bodies while waiting for my turn during an open ended block in Waihi Beach, once I got home and decompressed from my appointment in Tauranga, I finished the axolotl and two of the chickens! Busy busy! Ten days until the next market! Let's go!!

Happy Saturday all! I'm back, rested and ready to go! I've got a fair bit of stock building to do, ahead of my next market, which is the ultimate summer carnival market with Waihi Beach Saturday Farmers Market (follow me, or them for updates closer) on the 24th of January!

Can't wait to get back into the market scene, I've missed in in my short break!

Well, that's me for the year! Today's market was absolutely amazing, but most of them are!

I just wanted to say a couple things before I log off for a couple of weeks for some rest, whanau time and sun (hopefully)!

First of all, thank you to everyone who has purchased from me, engaged in my social media (weak and intermittent as it is!) and just loved my stuff, purchase or not!

My highlight of this half of the market season has definitely seeing the joy, wonder and love, in the faces of everyone (young or old!) who comes to my stall, whether they purchase something or not.

I'll be back in January, refreshed and revitalised, maybe with even a new thing or two! Watch this space!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a very happy new year!

Much love and appreciation from me, the creator of Cuddle Stitch Crafts,
