Set Up Day at Progressive Greetings Live and FREE extra space!



How is this then? Two bloggaroos in one day! I just HAD to share these pictures with you. We
went down to The Business Design Centre today in Islington...GHASTLY journey...thank goodness it is Sunday......I have decided to go by train on Tuesday and Wednesday.
By the way........you can just see the business card bunting I made a couple of weeks ago running across the front of the stand. I shall snip off cards for anyone wanting one. We took the table and stools out of the stand for this picture...there most certainly would not have been room for them in the tiny stand!

We arrived to find our stand being dismantled! It was only supposed to be two square metres...TINY! Anyway...the next door stand had cancelled and so I got an extra 2x1 metres gratis and for nothing AND an extra lamp, and so did the stand on the other side. This pictures shows just how small it was going to be...

Here is the extra metre being added. What a difference! We had to wait while the sparkies re-connected up the wiring and then we set about putting up the display boards


My stand is on the second level but it is near the coffee so I might see one or two potential buyers! I LOVED seeing this big board advertising 'The Fallen Angel Co'...how cool is that?


Here is a view from up top where I am. It is quite a big show dedicated purely to the card industry. SCARY!!!!!
More news after the show
