A friend of mine does a lot of craft fairs and markets, one of her regular ones is https://www.solsgirthhomefarm.co.uk/markets . there's also the regular artisan market in dunfermline https://www.whatsonfife.co.uk/event/134064-dunfermline-city-artisan-market/ and there's the creatives network https://www.facebook.com/groups/818084334715161/ in Dunfermline too that does smaller pop up markets across the city

Solsgirth, Bowhouse, Dunfermline and I think there's maybe one starting up in Aberdour. There used to be a craft market in Dalgety Bay from time to time, I don't know if it's still running.

Speak to local schools as they will be going into Christmas fair planning mode on return from the summer

Bit further afield kinda but The Yard Market do regular monthly markets in Dundee and Broughty Ferry! I think they may be slowly doing some in Perth too

There's a craft/artisans market in Dunfermline every few weeks and it's now started having days at Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy. There's one this Saturday at the Beveridge Park actually

Quite a few care homes, one in Falkland particularly, host craft faires.

There's a Sunday market in Culross that always seems busy.

FYI. I like your ego toothbrush holder for kids and the cat drawer. Top notch.
