Another exciting Art Bazaar in December! For those who's not familiar with this, Art For Grabs was held on 12 - 13 Dec 09 at Annexe Gallery, Central Market, Kuala Lumpur.
Molecule and Jocelyn (Chierr Diary)'s booth was located under the staircase in Hall 2. Joining us were 2 handmade soft toy artisan - Emily (I Love Unique Gift) and June (Little Frens.) The experience from previous bazaar in September enable us to have a better planning for our booth . T o make full use of the 5' x 5' booth, my handmade jewelries were displayed on the table, Jocelyn's illustrations, Mierr and photo frames were on the wall and a side table for the Emily's and June's soft toys .
Although the traffic wasn't as great as the one in September, our total sales were satisfactory, infact better than previous bazaar. Some people have feedback to us that they are able to browse and appreciate all the handmade stuff more comfortably as the hall was not so crowded. Further more, there are more chance to chit chat with the artisan in person and I believe this was an important factor that leads to sales increment.
To me, Art For Grabs is very different from other commercial bazaar. Besides displaying beautiful art and handmades, most artisan like us will make an effort to decorate our booth. Therefore, visitor will definately have an eye opening shopping experience there. For those who have missed this bazaar, don't worry as it will be held tentatively in March 2010. Do stay tune for more updates ya~
