People sometimes ask us why we do craft fairs.

And honestly? If you look at it purely as a business exercise, it does not always make much sense.

At our last fair, the table cost us £40. Fuel was around £20. We spent £17 on chips for dinner, £8 on drinks, £15 on a beautiful soap dish from a fellow trader, £12 on cakes from another trader, and £10 on some fantastic Crawfords Rock seaweed salt.

We made £104 in sales.

And that is before you factor in the time it takes to make the items, the cost of materials, the packing, the setting up, the loading and unloading, and all the little bits that go into getting ready for a market.

If we tried to work it out as an hourly wage, we would be nowhere near minimum wage. In fact, it probably costs us money.

So why do we do it?

This.

The smile on Billy’s face when someone bought a box of his Bee Wells.

That moment was priceless.

Little Bloom Co. has never just been about selling things. It is about purpose, confidence, pride, community, and giving people a chance to be seen for what they can do.

Every sale matters. Every kind word matters. Every person who stops at the stall, asks a question, buys something handmade, or supports another small trader becomes part of something much bigger than a market table.

So yes, we might come home tired. We might come home with fewer pennies than we hoped. But we also come home with moments like this.

And that is worth every penny.

Thank you Portrush, you were great!

We loved the friendly, happy vibe from all the fantastic people we met. 🥰

We won’t be there but the fine folk from fine and dandy markets will be back together with more great traders!

WARNING: Little Bloom Co is not responsible for what happens when you give us a photo and say, “Do your worst.”

John made this cheeky personalised plantable birthday card for his dad… and honestly, we may never recover.

One minute it’s a normal family photo.
The next?
Beach butts, rude signs, the dog exposing family secrets, and a birthday card that can actually be planted afterwards to grow wildflowers.

Completely inappropriate.
Entirely hilarious.
Probably going straight on the mantelpiece.

The best bit?
No two are ever the same.
We can turn your favourite people, memories, inside jokes, pets, holidays, disasters and questionable photos into personalised plantable greetings cards that are funny, heartfelt, chaotic… or all three at once.

You’ve been warned. 🌼
