nice words
“The ELC christmas market was wonderful. The Buzz and hype created during the event gave it a ‘real’ life event feel. The Live chats, makers sharing their studio space, buyers showing how they display at home all fed into the wonderful feel of the weekend. Charlotte who runs ELC puts her heart and soul into the events and that really sets it out from other online events’”
“ELC markets are genuinely unique. I’ve never felt so looked after and included. There’s such a sense of family and togetherness that I don’t think I’d really care if I made much profit but luckily I always do! Actually nothing to do with luck, Char’s marketing skills and dedication to creating a real market buzz are second to none.”
“There’s honestly no other market like an ELC market. You feel so supported as a maker and the atmosphere is so so electric from the start to the very end. Char puts so much effort into every detail of the day and it shows both as a maker and a customer – I had SO MANY customers telling me they’d never been to a market like it!”
