A Lovely Weekend

So Last Sat and Sun I was at Lythall Hall which was a lovely place on the flyde coast.

The weather was good and there were many visitors to the craft fair.

Together with my friends Rachel Lucie and Cathy Edwards we made our corner of the room look great.

I made many new items to take with me from bags to hats and accessories.

The first hat I sold was a very sharp looking felt trilby and the lady just fell in love with it, In fact she just sat for a good 10 minutes just happy in her own little hat bubble, then left with her hat box feeling very happy.

My mustard bag was a big hit and linen hats and pashminas sold well.

So It's back to the shop now and after a big tidy up and move around of tables and selections I am now getting ready for East Riddlesden Hall as I am showing my wedding range on Sunday.

I am just about to make a bridal headpiece now so I better get going.

Vintage wedding Fair

 On Sunday I left home bright and early to go to East Riddlesden hall for their vintage wedding fair.

 Shelly from Toast photography was set up across from me so there were plenty of laughs and witty chat in between the flow of wedding fair visitors.

Holly my intern came along with me and made her very own head wear which was much admired

 

There were so many lovely set ups including Emma bespoke wedding flowers 

 Beautiful jewellery from Saving face jewellery

I was next to a lady who made hand made wedding pies. Not your average pie, these were pretty if a pie can be pretty.

 I was able to use my lovely hand drawn sign again by artist Julia Ogden

Gorgouse table settings from Simply Vintage Events

I took along my woodland crown, cuffs and corsage which is hand crocheted, wired and strewn with crystals. One bride is coming to try on at the shop with her dress, this is a very particular wedding style so she was very happy to find it.

Hand painted signs from Barn Studio Signs

 

A whole table full of treasure from Vintage Strawberry who had some incredible vintage gowns.

 

The whole event was really lovely

 

What a beautiful timber roof.

So after much chatting to ladies who are now coming to the shop to sort out their upcoming wedding head wear, I went home very happy and with very tired feet.
