Car Boot Sale at Big Splash
19th-20th July 2008
Open carpark at the PLAYGROUND @ Bigsplash East Coast Parkway
It was a great experience over the weekend for hubby and myself at the Car Boot sale. My close pal Shirley told me about this Car Boot Sale and we booked almost 3 weeks in advance for the car lot.
We brought along used items such as clothes, baby stuff and of course my HANDMADE HAIRCLIPS AND BOWS for sale there. We also brought along the art clocks we made and they sold like hot cakes! We were glad that we did not dispose them off when we moved out from our shop space a year ago.
My hairclips did make some statements there and even attracted a baby clothes retailer. She asked me if I were keen to have my clips displayed in their store for sale! Of course I wouldn't mind the exposure and I am gonna have a discussion with her real soon!
The weather was bad for the 2 days - hot hot hot!!! Hubby and I got sunburnt, Shirley and Lynn too! The sun was scotching hot for a good half of the day but for both days it started pouring suddenly around late noon. We were like illegal vendors throwing our stuffs into our cars and ran for our life but we still got caught in the rain. I just hope that I don't fall sick next. We went for some coffee breaks and chit chatting while waiting for the rain to stop. It was still fun after all dispite the heavy rain and scorching hot sun!
After the rain we laid out our stuff again to sell and the crowd in the evening were as good and we managed to clear most of our Art Clocks at unbelieveable prices!
Hubby also saw 2 of his army platoon mates and they promised to do another round in Aug. Now i got to think of what to sell next...maybe some handmade baby clothes and such!
