Wowwee what a Fair!




So glad I made the effort to go all the way to Chipping Sodbury today, the Vintage & Handmade Fair was fantastic, so many great stalls, it was eye candy heaven! So much to look at, browse, rummage I could have stayed all day, if I had more money to spare I would have indulged in lots more lovelies. All the stalls were beautifully set out, there are some pics via the Vintage blog, it seemed to be very well run and set out. Having tea and cake was really welcome too, it kept the kidlets amused, well sort of one was being very grumpy!

So after looking around, going away for a think and coming back, what did I treat myself to....?


This very lovely button bracelet, very fun and colourful, from a fabulously set out stall by Ludabelle (http://ludabelle.blogspot.com/) I think. Apologies if this is incorrect, I didn't pick up a card to check.

And then I bought something else which is not something I would have liked previously but I now love these sort of flowery/corsages and have ummed and ahhed over making one. But this one was a fabulous colour, aparently it's Liberty fabric and the quality is lovely, the colours all work well together and the stitching is beautiful, well worth the £7 from Brocobelle (http://brocobelle.typepad.com/brocobelle)


I then had to drag myself away as aparently it was Picnic Time!! So we stopped off at Westonbirt on the way home which is lovely, very sunny and tranquil. So a long, tiring day but a good fun filled day, now hopefully a lie-in tomorrow morning! Fingers crossed.

Thanks so much for coming to the fair..
I wish I had known just how many bloggers attended..
We ought to have a special blog monitor at the next fair to do a count of all bloggers entering the building!!
Glad you had a good day out..
