jam display

i'll admit we do spend a lot of time thinking about our "merchandising" and have decided that pete's superpower lies in the area of display and stock control. in fact our friend simon has nicknamed pete "merch", as in merch doherty. ha ha.
here is merch hard at work before the market kicks off, early in the morning polishing the lids of our lovely jams and racking them up.

i made a modular system of shelves and blocks. i used foam core cut into pieces and sandwiched in layers to form the blocks and cut to length for the shelves. then i stitched tight covers from stretchy cotton knit and sewed them in. foam core is lightweight and really sturdy.
