Vintage Weekender, Shrewsbury Lion Hotel, 21-22 July!

Two days instead of one! That HAS to be a good thing! This weekend, Bus Stop Vintage is at The Lion Hotel, Wyle Cop, Shrewsbury, Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd July, 11am-5pm. I’ll be there, with brand new goodies, the vintage zoo, tote bags, lavender lovelies, cushions (with some made from my new fabric treasures, including a very exciting piece of 60’s vintage Heals Spring Song in the blue and purple colourway…gorgeous. I’ll post a picture later) and whatever else I come up with in the next few days! See you there, it’ll be fun!

Made in Shropshire, Saturday 14th July…Come Rain or Shine!

Regardless of what the weather might be doing, I can assure you that the market will go on! This Saturday, the 14th July, Made in Shropshire is holding its monthly arts and crafts market (with a little bit of gourmet food thrown in for good measure) in the Square in Shrewsbury town centre. Do come along…I have some pretty new bags and purses, more spiffing animals from my vintage zoo, lots of lovely lavender filled goodies and plenty of squashy cushions, perfect to brighten up your home this summer. See you there! 9am-5pm (though I haven’t usually finished setting up before 9.30 or 10….as I’m very busy drinking my morning latte(s).

Woore Victory Hall…it’s that time again!

Don’t forget to come to Woore Victory Hall tomorrow, Sunday the 1st July! It’s vintage and crafty time again! 10am -4pm. I wrote last month that there was going to be a dog show. I got that wrong and in fact it’s THIS month. So all the training that Foxy and I did was in vain. But, nevertheless, the discipline was good for us both. In fact Foxy found a new home that day and went off to Liverpool with his new owner, Claire from the Landbaby shop at the Bluecoats. Since when he has been joined by six of his siblings….catch them there along with some lovely lavender puppies! Claire has a beautiful website – it’s well worth a visit – http://www.landbaby.co.uk

Anyway, hope to see you tomorrow! I have some lovely new things…with some goodies in a sweet new ponies fabric, a Wish You Were Here cushion, new owls, more vintage zoo animals….and of course a new fox!

Bus Stop Vintage this Saturday 16th June! And Anstice the Next Day!

I’m at Bus Stop Vintage, this Saturday, 16th June, St Mary’s Church, Shrewsbury town centre, opposite Vinegar Hill! Do come. It’s from 10am-4pm. Loads of goodies! And then the fun vintage fair at the Anstice Memorial Club, Madeley, Telford on Sunday, again 10am-4pm. Hope to see you at one or the other…or both!

It’s Jubilee Time at Woore!

Fleecy the Fox

It’s come around so quickly. This Sunday I’m back at Woore Victory Hall in Cheshire for Lexy’s Vintage and Handmade Fair. A grand Jubilee affair this month, with extra treats….the splendid tearoom, of course, lots of lovely vintage, some amazing crafty sellers plus a vintage ice cream van! And, hotly anticipated, there’s only a DOG SHOW! For cutest dog my money is on Teddy the puppy, a regular attendee of Lexy’s vintage fair, who without fail causes grown men and women to swoon over his immeasurably charming fluffy features. I’m thinking of entering foxy here….We’ve been training all week and are feeling confident in both agility and obedience. See how we get on, this Sunday 10am-4pm!

Handmade and Vintage Fair, Woore, 6th May

I’m looking forward to Lexy’s Vintage at Woore next weekend. Even if it’s still non-stop raining we’ll be there in the warm and dry with all our goodies! Before that, on Saturday the 5th, I’m at the Made in Shropshire fair in Ludlow…OUTSIDE. It had better cheer up before then! I think the market coincides with Ludlow’s May Festival or something, so it should be fun and busy.

Made in Shropshire, Ludlow, Saturday 7th April…Do Come!

 

I’m back in Ludlow, for the first time this year, tomorrow, Saturday 7th April….the weather is going to be ok, so why not come and have a look around the lovely handmade craft stalls in the market square? We’re there from 9am-5pm. Lots of lovely new goodies, toys, buntings, Easter bunnies, cute purses and bags! I’m working on it right now….Or at least when I leave the computer alone and get back to my sewing machine. And Happy Easter, by the way!

Made in Shropshire, Saturday 10th March

See you tomorrow, for the Made in Shropshire Fair in the Square, Saturday 10th March in Shrewsbury town centre. Mother’s Day gifts abound! I’ve just made some cards too, that I just love! You’ll also find my new Easter Lavender Bunnies…twitchy twitch!

Vintage Escapades!

Lexy’s Vintage Fair on Sunday 26th February, at Woore Victory Hall, has an Alice in Wonderland theme! Splendid. I’m going to try and make some Alice themed things for it. Let’s hope my sewing machine can be fixed soon….It stopped working today and I feel rather bereft without it. It’s going in to be looked at tomorrow. So, in the meantime, I’m catching up with some dreaded admin. Yeuch. And adding a few things into my Etsy shop…such as this pretty little pincushion. Check it out via the Etsy Mini!
