Hannah Elizabeth Spring/Summer 14 Lookbook

I'm a little behind with Blog Friday this week, but I'd love to share with you our S/S 14 Lookbook. It was so fun doing the photoshoot, working with our model Grace and photographer Joey to come up with a simple and effective lookbook. We wanted the pastel tones to really show in the photos and still have a vintage hint with the styling and poses.

Hannah Elizabeth at the Coalfields Festival 2013

Saturday 27th August, Hannah Elizabethhd a lovely stall at the Coalfields Festival, Darton, Barnsley. The music festival had 5 different stages, all packed with local bands and musicians and an array of other stalls, including Fancy Dress, Jewellery, Fairground rides and a great range of different foods and sweets.

The Hannah Elizabeth stall consisted of two mannequins, two rails, three shoulder displays and plenty of stock. The festival was treat as a more marketing event for the business but still wanting the stall to look intriguing and inviting.

Yay! Hannah Elizabeth finally has its first stockist! This is Reba Unique, full of different designers that are all locally hand-made, meaning our range fits in there just right. The shop is well established and already has a really good customer base and stays up to date with new items and trends. Reba Unique sells other locals brands such as Recycled Junkie, Lily's Pad, Priority K and Spirit Jewellery & Accessories.

Collar Displaying

I have good news! Hannah Elizabeth collars and accessories will soon be available to buy from the Peel Street Emporium in Barnsley. It is a growing shop full of different independent businesses and crafters, only been open 3 months and is already very popular in the local town and is doing very well. I hope to eventually have a clothing range in the Emporium as well, but for now, my collars and accessories will be on sale.

Here is two boxes that I have acquired to display my collars on as I wanted a nice way of displaying them but still something simple. One box is a papier-mache love heart box and the other is a thick card miniature suitcase box. These are how I plan on displaying my items when I take them into the Emporium.

'I Love Craft' Fair @The Civic 17.11.12

Yesteday was the 'I Love Craft' Fair at The Civic in Barnsley, South Yorkshire. It was a moderate day, I made the most sales in the morning and then at lunch time it really dropped quiet. The customers came in drips and draps for the rest of the afternoon. However some customers had said the event was poorly advertised and had only caught sight of an A4 poster in the reception area of the Civic. Other craft stall holders said they had heard the same comments. I suppose it's just one of those things though, some craft fairs do amazingly well, really well advertised and greatly attended....then other fairs are just a dud, which is a shame and I'm sure there are crafters that end up making a loss at times. If you have ever attended a craft fair and had a stall/table there, please let me know what your experiences are!

So anyway, here are some photos of my stall at the event. I was also selling some of my Mum's hand made cards and stuffed bears, as well as some 'Woollies' items, which was a business that me and a friend did whilst at college and I still have some leftover stock.
