FUN AT THE FAIR

I can't believe that amost a week has gone by since the Spring V&H Fair! I have been meaning to write a blog post & show you my stall since Sunday but as always time just seems to fly by.


So...here goes....it was a lovely day as usual with 40 stalls brimming with wonderful goodies & 800 eager visitors making a beeline for their favoured items. Everything from jewellery & ceramics to vintage toys & fabrics...even a flower bedecked taxidermy 'pink footed goose' made an appearance on Niki's stall! The ladies of Rangeworthy kept everyone plied with endless cups of tea & coffee & delicious cakes which raised almost £300 for charity - well done ladies!

Thanks to all the fabulous stallholders & visitors for making it such an enjoyable day.

My stall.....vintage swans, books & china.

CHEERY THINGS ON A SUNNY DAY

 New strawberry bed made from a pallet that the horse bedding came on - the idea is that the fruit will grow on top of the wood & keep it nice & clean.



Morning cuddles...



Treacle tart...


Car boot buy...


Snoozing in the sunshine...


New shoes...


...and a nice cup of tea!


Hope you are all enjoying a lovely day.
