Between Markets!

Rona’s Beads Aboard boat shop open for business.

We had a lovely market at Fenny Stratford on the 4th and 5th August with lots of trade boats, I think 25 in total. There were a lot of interesting crafts to choose along with a cheese boat, ice cream and coffee boat, and two boats selling beers, wine and cider. We all enjoyed a sing-song in the evening.

At the moment we are spending some quiet time dealing with our ‘to do list’ which never seems to get shorter!

Our next market is at Milton Keynes for the August Bank Holiday weekend. Do come along for a visit, I’ll have all my gemstone jewellery on display, anklets, necklaces, earrings and bracelets.

About The Author

Rona Beadboss

I worked in Jewellery retail for many years, passing my Gemmology exams in 1993 making me an F.G.A. This gave me a passion for gemstones and all their fabulous colours. Around this time I also learned the art of pearl rethreading, which I still do for some of the jewellers in my local town. In 2014 I rented out the house and, along with my partner, bought a wide beam canal boat to travel the UK canals and waterways. I registered as a roving trader, so we can now set up shop wherever we think a mooring place is busy enough and take part in organised floating markets. I hope you enjoy following my blog.
