This weekend, I had the pleasure of setting up at the Westgrove Hotel Christmas Market in Clane, and it truly was a fantastic experience! From the moment I arrived to set up, the atmosphere was buzzing with excitement, festive cheer, and the promise of a wonderful day ahead.
The venue was beautifully organized, with stalls arranged in a way that showcased each vendor’s unique offerings. The turnout was incredible, with families, couples, and friends wandering through, enjoying the holiday spirit. It was clear that this market was a highlight for the local community, and I was thrilled to be a part of it.
My Stall Highlights
This year, I brought something extra special to my table—a portable laser engraving machine! This little marvel drew so much curiosity from visitors, and I loved chatting with everyone about how it worked. The best part? I could offer onsite engraving for my festive ornaments! People loved the opportunity to create personalized keepsakes right there and then, which added a unique touch to their gifts.
Alongside the engraving station, my table was stocked with a variety of my popular items, including:
Festive mugs and tumblers, perfect for cozy winter drinks.
Coasters with unique designs that made wonderful stocking stuffers.
Reusable tote bags, ideal for carrying holiday shopping or gifting.
A Warm, Festive Atmosphere
The day was made even more special by the amazing vendors surrounding me. The creativity and quality on display were truly inspiring, with everything from handmade crafts and baked goods to unique gifts that made perfect holiday purchases. It’s always a joy to connect with fellow makers and share in the experience.
The atmosphere was electric, with live music, twinkling lights, and the sound of laughter and chatter filling the air. There’s something magical about Christmas markets, and the Westgrove Hotel did an incredible job of capturing that festive spirit.
Thank You for the Support
A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by my stall, whether it was to browse, purchase, or simply learn more about my laser engraving process. Your support means the world to small businesses like mine, especially during the holiday season.
