Lately, I've been busy making Viking figures and Celtic trees of life in my shed. I now have a total of 26 different Viking figures, and I have another 12 waiting to be made. I regularly sell all these pieces at markets. This spring, I had a stall at a Celtic festival, where I sold many of these Viking figures and other Celtic plaques. I really enjoy the atmosphere at such a festival, so I've registered again for a Scandinavian market on September 27th and 28th.
