Weathering the Storm...

J's Taikayaki

The One Market team was moved by the passion displayed from stallholders at their 2nd market held at Holy Trinity Church in Williamstown over the labour day weekend.

Scattered showers played hide and seek in the morning with One Market organizers and stallholders but those who braved the early rain were rewarded with blue skies and sunshine in the afternoon. Many were delighted with J’s Taikayaki, a husband and wife team who brought bite size Japanese pancakes of sweet and savory fillings to the people of Williamstown. No sweet tooth was left unsatisifed.

Both young and old were excited by the personally selected products found at One Market. From local Williamtown fashionistas who were frilled with the vintage dresses found at Vintage Threads “it’s difficult to find such awesome vintage stuff in this area, I’m so definitely coming back“ to passer-bys who were mesmerised and charmed by Lynne Kelly of Chandelles D’Amour Candles. Gary from Bentsticks is a Hobsons Bay resident who makes whimsical story book toys from hand picked recycled wood. Gary will be back in May. He says "It's a great little market". With a successful day at the market Lynne Kelly comments "Thank you for organizing such a great day. It is easy to see that this market will take off well. The location is ideal as it is situated on a main road where people travel, so is a great opportunity".

Iggle & boo were one of the many stallholders who embraced the weather on the weekend. iggle & boo are setting the pace with their sophisticated children’s clothing range. The range includes classy designs & classic colours that are fun to wear everyday. Designed and made in Australia, the iggle & boo collection is tailored for boys and girls aged 6 months to 5 years. Designer kids clothing – hoodies, long sleeve t-shirts, jeans, dresses, t-shirts, baby rompers, blankets & accessories. iggle & boo - always movin’, always groovin’.

Holy Trinity Church must truly be a special place. It was only as the market drew to an end that the anticipated thunder storms made its appearance.

If it is said good things come in threes, then we can expect the next market on Easter Saturday to be an absolute winner! What better a way to spend another long weekend than to take a stroll along Nelson Place, taking in the fresh air, the views of the seaside town and of course One Market!
