Christmas decorations??

 

If you are a regular follower, you have probably realised that I like decorative items and enjoy using them in unusual ways. This mornings buys all have a decorative Christmas theme to them (unintentionally, but these things happen).

The battered 50’s ice bucket speaks for itself, the vintage Balinese puppet is more lovely than the pictures show and I think would be lovely sitting on a mantlepiece.

A pair of Victorian prints of angels in tatty gilt frames, when I looked closer at the subject, I think they are Guardian angels. Again I can see them standing on a dresser base either side of a potted Christmas tree with lights and candles glittering.

and lastly, just lovely for a gift, a Bessie Pease Cutmann print, “On dreamlands border”

To Debbie who left a comment below, if you can email me I can reply to your queries.Thank you.

We all love shoes, the question is, if you could have a pair of couture, bespoke, beautifully embroidered shoes, would you wear them or just keep them under a glass dome to look at?

Bramble @ The Vintage Bazaar

I have had a stand at all 3 Vintage Bazaars and this lovely lady has visited me each time.

Bramble is the most beautiful 15 year old Jack Russell, since I last saw her she has been quite poorly but has made a great recovery.

 

She visits the VB with her Mum & Dad, who always carries her perched on his arm, (as usual I forgot to ask Dad’s name). So hello Bramble, Mum & Dad, lovely to see you again

I didn’t manage to take any pictures of the stalls, but would like to say that the fair looked fabulous and I think that business was good. We had lots of lovely customers, some of whom complimented me on the stand looked, sometimes it is these comments that make it all worthwhile.

Well done to Clare & Liz the organisers.

Apologies & The Vintage Bazaar

Firstly, apologies to you all for not having blogged recently, most of October has passed me by, the first three weeks were spent travelling through Russia from St.Petersburg to Rostov on Don, via Kazan, Volgograd & Astrakhan to name a few. Unfortunately the re-circulated air on the boat was the cause of illness and I have spent the last week with very little energy, HOWEVER, I have today transformed my kitchen into a practice area for Saturdays Vintage Bazaar in Frome.

The space that is allocated to me is a horseshoe space, so imagine if you will, two tables either side of my lighting & bling table, if I have enough time and am not over run with customers as soon as we open I will try to take pictures of the finished stand, but usually at Frome we are busy as soon as the doors open and I have little time to get my stand ready so I may not.

I will blog about my amazing trip soon, I have some wonderful photos.

Thanks for staying with me.
