What an amazing day at the Young Traders Market Regional Final in Market Harborough! ☀️
What an experience this has been for the girls! ❤️ I am one incredibly proud mama because they absolutely smashed it.
This was their very first business market stall (apart from a few school fairs), and they exceeded all my expectations. They confidently spoke with customers, explained how they make each of their products, and shared the story of how their little business first began. Watching their confidence grow throughout the day was so special.
They were also amongst the youngest traders there, and the support they received from the other stall holders was just incredible. Everyone was so encouraging, cheering them on and making them feel so welcome.
A huge thank you to Kylie Ball, one of the judges, for taking the time to meet the girls and for leaving such a lovely recommendation afterwards. Your kind words meant so much to them (and to me!).
“They were both very approachable and passionate about their makes and it was a delight to meet them… Keep up the good work girls. Keep crafting, keep shining!” 💛
Receiving such wonderful feedback from one of the judges is something they’ll always remember.
Today wasn’t just about selling their handmade creations. It was about building confidence, learning how to run a business, talking to customers, and believing in themselves. Those are memories and skills they’ll carry with them for years to come.
A huge thank you to everyone who came to support them, stopped for a chat, or bought one of their creations. Every purchase, every conversation and every word of encouragement means the world.
Here’s to many more markets and exciting opportunities ahead for Creations by Pip & Co. ✨
One very proud mama. ❤️
