Little Gems
My sister, Ruby, and I make up our little group called Little Gems. We have always liked making things and wanted to go to market with our goods. When the opportunity came to join Kids Do Markets we were very excited.
We started with tie dyed t-shirts and socks. We had been experimenting with this as one of our homeschool art projects. It was so exciting to see the outcome of our socks and t-shirts when we washed them out.
We also learnt how to present them for sale. We packaged them and made labels and priced them.
I ( charlotte) love making jewellery and mum had a large selection of glass pendants. I used diamond glaze to seal beautiful scrapbooking papers on to the glass tile. I then hung the pendant on a necklace. Mum also had lots of beads and I made some beaded necklaces too.
Ruby and I also liked to go to card making classes and made lots of cards to sell at our stall.
Ruby has been making bath salts to sell. She uses epson salts, bicarbonated soda and premium essential oils. she has made peace and calming bath salts, relaxing and healing bath salts and joy bath salts.
Ruby and I love being part of Kids Do Markets. We love learning new arts and love talking to people. Our personal development days are great fun and very informative. The markets are lots of fun and sometimes a but stressful setting up, but we are getting faster and are site is starting to look quiet beautiful. Written by Charlotte from Little Gems
