Moving on up!
Having a van driver, handy man, furniture remover, coffee maker, is very helpful when you have a new unit to furnish……
This is not quite finished and I did change it around today and added some more furniture, however I am vey happy with the results.
I hope that you like my place on the top floor @ Dairy House

Flo hits the big time
If you follow this link, not only can you find Florence, she will be unbearable now that she is a "star", but many of my fellow bloggers and textile ladies that have been photographed by the lovely Alice, for her fairs reports in recent weeks (I have some of my stock in the photos but refuse to be photographed). Do go and have a look it is a very handy website.
I will be very busy this weekend, moving into Dairy House Antiques, but will hopefully have lots of pictures of the fun and games for my next blog!!

If you are in Somerset tomorrow, don't forget to call into Somerton, to Buttercross vintage market

Full House!!
Yesterday I went to The Old Pill Factory to change stock, unfortunately as I was in a rush I didn’t have time to take pictures, but the window is fantastic and wonderfully colourful, it and the shop are full of lovely interesting things, so if you are passing…….
Today Flo and I have been in the barn sorting furniture :& mirrors & lots of other things, so that we can re-label them in readiness for the weekend when we move into our new unit on the top floor of Dairy House Antiques.
So for those of you who are not “in the trade” I thought that I would show you a few pictures of how our house is at the moment.
Piles of textiles, the hallway or squeezeway, utility and the kitchen,
this is how the house will be until Friday when I can load the van, there would be more but luckily my friend Woo, offered to store some for me, so her shed is currently bulging!!
So to those of you who know how it works I am sure that I have your sympathy and to those that don’t do this for a job, this is how life is!
Lastly can you spot Flo??

I have loaded the van during a storm of mint imperials, or was it hail? So I don't have lovely pictures of stock, needless to say I am sure that there will be lots of lovely things, ranging from painted furniture to cotton reels, with everything in between, at the Vintage Bazaar tomorrow.
Will you be there?

On a misty morning….
How the borders are changing, yellows gone and ablaze with red tulips, lovely old fashioned cowslips & Devon violets in the borders have also self-seeded into the lawn.
The reclaimed brick path that we laid, also has self-seeded violets
In Emily’s garden, a nick name for my gran Trixie, is a Cornish granite gate post with her name on a metal plaque, it is a quiet woodland garden carpeted with old fashioned primroses and wood anenomes, standing next to the shady willow trees and mill pond and sluice gate, so if you are sitting there you can listen to the trickle of the water.
