Christmas craft fair vlog, behind the scenes. What you need for your craft fair.

[@valeriehoward6088]

You are so clever, don't know how you get the time when working as well. Love how you decorate your lovely little home fo Christmas. 😊

[@vandahuman8522]

Omw, I love your crafts, everything is so professionally made. I had memory bear and bunny made for my grandchildren. The bear/bunny was made from shirts from my late dad. A label was sewn onto them - "This is the shirt I used to wear. Whenever you hold it know that I am near. Love grandpa Sidney".

[@asoto7122]

You are such a dear person & it's reflected in all your pretty things. Love your cute craft pieces, it's important to be true to one's style & you are. Love your dresses, I'm a skirt person myself. Marathon of Dainty Dairies continues! Take care, lass. By the way,, I'm from Brooklyn, NY.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw, your so kind! Thanks so much for watching my videos!

[@kellybennett9240]

I adored watching this and I absolutely love watching all of your videos! You are such a sweetheart and such a genuinely kind soul - the world could use a lot more people like you in it! ❤️❤️

[@mistydawncreates]

Catherine, I went back to your old videos because I needed something to crochet to and I enjoy yours so much. Well, I have to say I had a great idea. Your bears are adorable and I enjoyed them. I definitely want to make memory bears for a couple kiddos for Christmas. Also, you have incredible taste and sense of style when it comes to fabric and color choices. Very high end! Thanks you!

[@deirdredelaughder1060]

Catherine, I’m so enjoying watching your older videos. I’m sure MANY people have told you how absolutely beautiful and so well made your items are, but I’ll join in, your sewing and creating is top notch!🥰 I hope you let yourself buy a few tea cups and candles, you deserve it. You are such a precious young lady, and you’re a great blessing! ❤️xoxo

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you so much! you are so kind x

[@jessicagrace7294]

I absolutely LOVE this. I adore your smile and bubbly demeanor. Your crafts are so beautiful. I have been following you for some time and have been binge watching your videos this week again. I lost my mum and brother in April and the days have been hard. When I can see your gorgeous smile and your adorable cottage I feel joy in my heart. I’ve always dreamed of visiting Ireland and I just love seeing the scenery. Loves to you. ❤

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw I am so so sorry for. your loss

[@JESUSlovesyouall]

All of your items were so nice! I loved those sweet teddy bears. I've done craft fairs so I know how amazing, stressful, fun and hard they can be. At the end of the show you're exhausted but revitalized all at the same time.

[@aimquin]

Your products are so cute and look so well made. Congrats on your success at the fair!

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks Aimee, Thanks so much for watching! x

[@sharonarrendale8418]

[@kindred1113]

looking AT YOUR CRAFTS GAVE ME A GREAT IDEA....I used to make stuff like that years ago and I stop

[@DaintyDiaries]

AW you should definitely start again x

[@freddiepittman5409]

When my Brother in law passed away..My sister had his Pj's made into Teddy Bears for all his grand children.. They love them..

[@patriciagoodwin378]

I never knew bears could look so cheerful, very nice

[@DaintyDiaries]

I am definitely on a Dainty Dairies marathon this week- everything is so beautiful. Catherine when do you rest? Do you have a youtube video for making any of your items? Everything is gorgeous. Your display and layout is so beautiful. You look stunning..... your inner beauty and personality shines through.

[@Practice_Kindness-1st]

Oh my goodness! You are so well prepared to sell your goods! Your items are so commercial and pretty! I am desperately wishing to sell my stained glass items here in the States, but had NO IDEA what it truly entails to set up a mini mobile shop! A lot to think about! On to the next DaintyDiaries video!

[@deepestanio4625]

Catherine, I'm starting to catch up. You are so talented! I bet you could make a killing on Etsy. I wonder how much the memory hearts are? Keep it up and I know your brand will soar: )

[@lisaowen2930]

What a great video. I loved your handmade items and the way you set everything up was beautiful. It's always a good idea to sell cheaper items too and your hearts and embroidery rings were so cute

[@DaintyDiaries]

You are so kind, Thank you for watching and commenting! I am so glad you enjoyed it, x

[@sara3108]

Was absolutely lovely to meet you on Saturday! Apologies for chewing the ears off you (& Mr Dainty) mostly that I am now a crazy cat lady 🙈 2 of your heart will be making their way to Newcastle this weekend and I can't wait to share them. You're an absolute inspiration and hope you enjoy that well deserved rest in a couple of weeks! The Guinness is waiting xx

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you so much for coming to the fair! it really means a lot. I cannot wait for a pint! I'm bleeding parched for a pint! have a fan time in Newcastle x

Fabulous video, really helpful, have you got any tips for printing on fabric, seen various ways to do it, not sure which way is best x

[@AtHomeWithZaneR]

I love the bears !!! 🐻 Everything is soooooo adorable!!

[@willothwisplx2516]

Oh, this video was so sweet. Just love the bears and other crafts, so pretty. Your bedroom set was very pretty. Also just love the dresses you wear, beautiful material. Blondie is so funny...That is very interesting that you sell at the fair, have never done that, always thought about it. Am doing a few Christmas crafts this year. Might try making some soap or candles.

[@lisafarrow6840]

Thanks for taking us along to the fair! I am so in love with those Teddy's, just darling and I would buy one in every pattern. Nicely done :)

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw thanks so much for watching Lisa x it was such a fab weekend

[@diannaharless5953]

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks, Dianna. That is so kind of you. Thank you for watching.

[@sherrysmith7785]

Awww, I love all your crafts!!! You are so talented!!! I would have loved to have been there and purchased some of them! 💕

[@maureenp7082]

You do beautiful work. I make aprons out of men's shirts, so when I saw the bear (I love bears!) it gave me ideas for my grandchildren. Love your videos! Thank you!

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw wow! That is a great idea with the shirts, Thanks so much for watching, Have a lovely weekend.

[@chrisprpich7019]

Love your crafts. Gorgeous all of them. 😀❤️🇨🇦

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much Chris 😊

[@sandylmcallister]

You are so talented! You're a doll! Loved this video!

[@celinescurry6042]

Love this....I've been wanting to paint something in my garden for ages & you've just inspired me to do it. I'll show you a before & after if it works out 😂 love your videos & snaps 💖

[@magsadams20]

Love the vlogs and your teddies are gorgeous 💕

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching! so glad you liked it x

[@sharonrodenhurst3232]

what pattern did you use for your amazing teddys love your work

[@traceyoneill8627]

Hi . I've just came across your channel which I think is fab.. I gave up on craft fairs as I was hardly making the table rent. I love your products can I ask where you got your wee labels on the love hearts and are they printed or embroidered ?

[@monicas2269]

I thought I had binge watched all you videos but this one popped up from somewhere and I hadn't seen it before. Where did you get the messages that were sewn on the hearts, or did you make them yourself please? All your makes look so lovely.

[@sheilaoriordan75]

Lol I almost ran back over to you when we saw those candle teacups yesterday 😄 Your stall was by far the most professional and uncluttered, I think that is where some of the other stalls could have improved. You should try making some cute little makeup bags for your next fair, they would be easy to make and might be another stock option using the same aesthetic? Hope you get some much deserved downtime now to plan your trip to Paris 👍🏻

[@DaintyDiaries]

Wasn't her stuff amazing! I bought two cups off her on the Sunday, she was so lovely too. Thank you so much for coming along, the books are amaaaaazing! I am going to get a proper read of them over Christmas and start planning some adventures for Paris x Thanks so much

[@mireillewilson5911]

Darling i can't imagine meeting you would be disappointing! Your kind and light. Im sure everyone loved meeting you

[@MarinaHogan]

Congrats on the craft fair and great new vlog 😀😀😀🍾🍾🎉🎉🎊🎊

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting Marina x glad you like it, its was a fab weekend.

[@rhondamitchell5892]

Hello it me Rhonda I'm watching your videos from the start did you say you made all these bears and hearts? It is all beautiful.

[@pamelafreeman4548]

Beautiful crafts!!

[@debbierushing7850]

I love the simplicity of the pattern for your bears, would you mind sharing where the pattern came from, or did you make it yourself? Everything is sooooo pretty.

[@DaintyDiaries]

HI Debbie, I got this pattern off my sewing teacher when I was doing evening classes x

[@darksidesr7]

so beautiful Catherine , i wish i can buy some for next Christmas, i love it !! i am too far to come and visit you unfortunately, thank you Catherine, have a nice weekend too ♥

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching Sophie! x

[@darksidesr7]

♥

[@summerdawn4116]

First off, I absolutely love your youtube channel. Also your Facebook and Instagram. I would love to see a video on how you make your memory bears. I am also a tea cup/ tea pot collector and my little one has just started collecting miniature tea cups. She just got her first one🙂💖

[@summerdawn4116]

Bye the way I am from Cochrane, Alberta/Canada💖🙂☺

[@dianalucio9036]

Omg lol you're the cutest and sooo talented .. I'm so inspired to travel and do things I love ❣️

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw you are so sweet Diana x

[@kirstymckirgan6028]

I love your channel its amazing! Could you make a video on how you create the memory bears please ☺ X

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you so much for watching my videos! I have an issue with copyright on the pattern so I am looking into it x X x

[@missdaisy1053]

Hi Catherine love the memory bears they are adorable, you are so talented in everything you do , I would love to be able to make one of these what pattern do you use ?

[@DaintyDiaries]

HI lovely, Thanks so much for watching, The pattern I use I got off my sewing teacher and I am not sure where she originally got it x

[@loubeloubelou]

I am actually hoping to do some markets myself this year! I am panicking about not having enough stock and that nothing is going to sell... Is there anything you would say someone really needs to know/do when having a market/craft stall? Any advice would be amazing! Also, I love you and everything you create! and I want to steal your house haha x

[@May.Mae_]

Do you take shipping orders for the bears?

[@turkeyraisons22]

Do you use interfacing on your bear fabric? I have my own bear pattern and everytime I make a white/cream bear you can see the seam through the material, its almost translucent. Any tips? x

[@DaintyDiaries]

Yes, interfacing would definitely help this, the fabric might be too thin x

[@vickiesizemore6922]

adorable you do a beautiful job

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching!x

[@rolindsay4295]

Can you show how you make the teddies if possible. All items are beautiful

[@DaintyDiaries]

I used some string, my banner had eye hooks and I was able to tie it to the table x Thanks so much for watching!

[@kfaulknerstudio]

Had to watch this after your latest video mentioned the memory bears and VistaPrint craft fair banner (I have one of those collecting dust) 😄 (Blondie ❤)

[@susandavidson3610]

What size are your teddies? I want to find a pattern but can’t decide which size would be best. Ty

[@karenkeating6824]

A heart could explode...hilarious!

[@sarao982]

Hi Catherine. Love this video and you have made some beautifully things. Are you able to say what pattern you used for the memory bear? I want to make one for my daughter as a special 30th birthday keepsake using some fabric from childhood dresses I kept of hers? Happy for you to DM me. Sara x

[@MaggieShawn]

Your designs are adorable! I love them all! Available on your website? xx

[@sewfancynancydesign5970]

Awe....you are just precious! I love your bear's too! Your make up is spot on and the dress was perfect both days at the craft fair. What kind of camera are you using? I'm a retired teacher and am thinking about a vlog....

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching! I am using the Olympus Pen EPL7 on a 17mm lens x

[@turkeyraisons22]

How many bears did you make for the craft fair? I know every fair is different, but I'm just trying to work out how many would sell x

[@DaintyDiaries]

I remember having 30 bears and seling over half x

[@cristyshomedecor6769]

Love your products. Do you have an esty shop or a way for people in U.S. to buy?

[@susanovington3930]

Hi what pattern do you use for the memory bears ?

[@sharonk8415]

OMG Catherine, I just love your bears. When we visit Dublin next year, where can I purchase one from? I'd love to bring a little something home to South Africa from you. :)

[@DaintyDiaries]

Hi, Sharon, I am actually not making them at the moment to sell. I hope you have an amazing trip in Ireland! x

[@Pani-y2g]

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw thank you so much. Thanks for watching.

[@turkeyraisons22]

Dainty, what sort of height are your bears when they are done? x

[@DaintyDiaries]

They are roughly 18 cm x

[@Liz-gg3kj]

Do you still make the bears? If so do you ship?

[@DaintyDiaries]

Hey, no I stopped making these many years ago x

[@vivienmcnaul109]

Your items are beautiful 😍

[@ggwtf9696]

So precious & beautiful💕💕💕

[@turkeyraisons22]

What price would you sell your bears? Trying to get inspiration for pricing my own at a craft fair!

[@DaintyDiaries]

I honestly can't put a price on your work, my best tip is to add up all your materials, price your time and use that as a guide for price. x Best of luck

[@ginamaria2579]

The lil bears are soo adorable, you Lady are talented ! Do you sell in the states ?

[@cocorhys-jones8815]

Thought I had already watched this... it's amazing how much work goes into craft fairs or doing something like this that you sell on... don't think people realise how much goes into it. you are super talented & such a lovely person. I want this to be your main job soon!! You deserve it.

[@DaintyDiaries]

AW thank you pal x I do too, I will keep working hard and try and get to that point. Thank for watching and for all of the support. xxx
