    A few greystones mum's have decided to do this fair as we felt our community needed something like this,and also to utilise a great wealth of talent that is out there in this current climate.We have a certain amount of tables and there is alot of interest already.Should you or indeed know anyone who might be interested please pm me .The tables cost only 15euro for this first fair to give everyone a chance to show their wares.

    Please support your locality and pop in even if you don't have anything to sell,even to say hello. Help us to enhance our community spirit which is very much alive in greystones.

    Hi Snowbabe
    I make jewellery and I am REALLY interested in having a table in this fair. What do I have to do?
    Thanks a mill!

    I heard that because of the great response to this that they've moved the date to St Patricks day?

    Hi Snowbabe,
    Great idea.
    Could you let me know when this is on and how I can get in touch with organisers?
    Thanks!

    Looks like I've been volunteered to help with this fair!:)
    So here's the latest
    The fair is on St. Patrick's Day in St. Patrick's N.S. from 12:30 until 3pm.
    So far we have 15 stalls and have room for a couple more. We will also have a tea and coffee area in the hall where the fair will be.
    There will also be hot food from The Steakhouse and there will also be crepes.
    We're also hoping that St. Patrick himself might turn up!:D

    If you would like to have a stall them please contact me and I will forward your details to the stall organiser.

    Have you thought about advertising in the Greystones guide too? (It's free to put on their calendar).

    I organised a sale a while ago and it was a huge success. I have booked to do another one, but I am having problems with getting public liability insurance! Any tips? I don't want to pass costs onto stallholders.

    If you would like me to distribute leaflets for you, please let me know. I am involved in the local parent/toddler groups and other activities, and know of a good few people who make things too that might be interested in a stall.

    All the best, I am sure it will be fantastic and I am going to try to pop in myself too.

    We are now up to 20 stalls, with face painting and hot food as well as teas and coffees. The fair runs from 12:30 til 3:30 . There are posters in most shops in Greystones with all the information on them. Did I mention it's free in?:)
