Nice! The world needs more of these. We call them bum bags in the UK and I use one every day

u/Roselia24 8d ago

Yeah I'm getting to bring them back in style. It was way more popular early 00s.

And apparently some people also call them belt bags in the u.s. i live here and never heard anyone say that but apparently they exist.

I love the blue bird one! Have you considered cross-body bags?

u/Roselia24 19d ago edited 8d ago

I do make those but not out of that fabric. Its outdoor canvas and i think it might be far to thick to be made into a small bag. Sometimes the thicker canvas be breaking my needles.

I also make beach totes out of the outdoor fabric So more bigger stuff.

Or idk maybe upholstery might work. I haven't tried it because it's so thick.

Hello all, I want to share something a bit different from the usual makes: an app, but one built for craft fair folk.

I kept getting home from markets with a pocket full of business cards from stalls I loved, and then losing track of which card was the candle person vs. the ceramics person from which fair. So I built Gathered, a free app that scans a business card (or QR codes), reads the details automatically, and files it under the event where you picked it up. Later you can search "the soap maker from the June market" and actually find them.

If you're a vendor, it's the thing you hope your customers do with your card instead of losing it in a drawer and honestly it's handy for saving the cards you collect from fellow stallholders too.

It's free to use, on both stores:

📱 iPhone: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/gathered/id6779765628

🤖 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.pickapps.gathered

Would genuinely love feedback from people who live the craft fair life; you are exactly who I built it for.

Mods: please remove if this isn't appropriate :)

I have a home based metaphysical business and do events throughout the year. I expanded from making altar supplies for witches and spiritualists to making wire wrapped crystal jewelry, I sell some healing and display crystals, I make my own healing skin care line and some sun catchers. Honestly, my business has been the catalyst in finding out I have ADHD lol. Having such a wide variety of things is actually helpful because I can do different types of events and just bring the items I think are a fit for that event.
I’m The Celtic Crone on FB and IG and sell on my website www.thecelticcrone.co

I highly recommend an app called Boothkeeper which someone posted here to plan and record my events and it grades each event based on profits and expenses.
