MrB can do it, so can other men! Here is a sample of some up and coming pairs that will presented at our next market. We are attracting a younger men's crowd looking for some daring colour to add to their feet. Are they daring enough to buy them though will be the big question of the day? If they don't, not to worry, because you know who, will gladly take them off the display rack and put them in his own drawer. I am not mentioning any names :-)
So this is my latest market tactic....bright bright bright! The conversative yarn will stay in the bag till winter. We bought conservative to please the ones who did not like colour. Spring and Summer, lay on the colour! Colour shows, colour sells! Colour for our show and sell at the markets here I come. I wore a very conservative bland colour of socks last market appearance, and a regular market goer came up to me to say he noticed I did not have colourful socks on that day. There you go, you think they may not be noticing your socks, but they are! It will be mandate next Saturday, March 23 to sell one of these two pairs.
Can I do it?

Socks once worn by MrB. The once very conservative grey mundane socks!
Now look what he wears, sporting them happily with a giant smile on his face!
The contrast is unbelievable :-) You would not believe how a brightly coloured pair of socks can liven your day and your feet!
MrB, I can guarantee, will have the brightest socks on, while dining for suppers at the resort at the Paradius Rio de Oro Resort and Spa, in a few weeks.

March 10th, 2012, this was our very first small church market! Can't believe it looking back that I actually sold a pair of socks that day! I was scared shitless and excited. Now one year later, I am an ole pro! We had another very successful market experience yesterday. MrB must have thought so too, as he got me these beautiful orange tulips. They look awesome in our kitchen as our kitchen is orange too! Very bright, very cheery, and the sun is beaming in today through the window. Now to make this a sock related post, I want to say that we love orange socks too, and so do our customers. They like socks with orange, purple and yellow in them and then I would think comes the colour pink! What colour do you like in your socks?

If you happen to have the Winter Blues, get these BLUES instead, these ones are Hugs for your feet!
And another pair to add to the GREEN basket too!

Gone Green! We will have a couple pairs of our "Green, Ego-Friendly" Left-Over pairs of socks at the market Saturday. I will also have a basket of other select socks in different shades of green there too for anyone who wants to have Green socks for the upcoming St. Paddy's Day, March 17th as we will not be attending the market Saturday, March 15th. I am being the early bird that gets the worm.

Left-Overs for you on the left and Left-Overs for me on the right!
One thing about being the "Show and Sell Lady" for the markets, I constantly need new pairs for my sock wardrobe. I try to wear a different pair every market, so far, I am good! I am very excited that I have some recent pairs, to sport, upcoming for Spring and Summer :-) Oh the pair on the left are for you... hope you like them.

I found this little piggie bank in my stash from things I kept of my two boys when they were little. I cleaned it up tonight, and just had to post it....so I called this post, This little piggie went to market, since we are starting to get in gear getting ready for our market on Saturday. And of course the whole idea of going to market is to bring home some pennies. I will have a sock photo to post tomorrow, so see you then!
