Vintage/Retro Fair

Tabernacle Junction - Yeovil - 19th November 2011 
Be there or be......well...missing out quite frankly.

I am super super excited about going to this this weekend.
Nothing like this happens in our sleepy rural town, so this is going to be brilliant.

This has all been put together brilliantly by Daisys Vintage Kitchen

My friend is having a stall there.  She makes the most amazing items out of vintage fabrics.  Look how totally fabulous this is.

This is from her shop Pica Pica on Etsy.  She runs this with her friend and between them they have lots of original vintage fabric for sale as well as these fab bags.

There is also a Burlesque Troop called Barmy Burlesque. To find out more about them go to their website Barmy Burlesque or visit their Facebook Page

Here's a few more fantastic stall holders

Poot

Twinklicious, Twinkles Jewellery

Retro Nouveau

As well as the above stall holders, there are many more, plus there will be a hair and make up salon, music, cake, booze........it's just too perfect!

I have a sneaky suspicion that I am going to come back with an empty purse!!!

I emailed my sister in law about this and she is most excited about the pop up tea room.....this made me chuckle as I am most excited about the Troop of 1940's US Airborne.....IN UNIFORM!!!

So make sure you don't miss out on a truly fabulous day in the country and come and hang out back in time.

Hey Baby, I'm Back.....Again

Haha, I'm back again my lovelies.  And in my return I bring you a beautiful array of vintage beads.  Today I listed a few in my Etsy shop and i will be listing more over the next few days so make sure you keep checking as there are some beautiful ones to come.

Above are a few of my new listings but there are more to come.  It would be ace if you could pop over to my shop and let me know what you think.

 All of these beautiful beads date from the 1920's up to the 1950's.

I have loads and loads more to list, I just need some sunny weather to come our way so that I can photograph them to show off their gorgeousness......and if nothing else it would be great to have the nice weather as I'm feeling a bit on the chilly side....come on sun!!

Google Plus

Today I have been trying to wrap my head around Google Plus and it is slowly sinking in.......phew I hear you all gasp!

 Also, I will be adding some vintage beads that I recently aquired in the next few days so please keep a look out in the shop.  There are so many really beautiful beads all of them dating from 1920's-1950's and many are semi precious stones.  There are some particularly gorgeous large jade leaves.

Here's a sneaky peek.

First Sale

Last week I enjoyed my very first sale since I re-opened my shop.  I sold this lovely necklace.

And here are some photos of the newest arrivals!

I am going away to France for my holidays this year, I will be away from 21st July.  My last posting day will be Wednesday 20th July.

New Designs

New designs put in my Etsy shop today.

Sneaky Peek

Here's a little close up of something I am working on at the moment.

Jump Rings

I've just started jewellery making and am finding it hard to put my trust in jump rings?  Why is this?  Almost every piece of jewellery that I own has them on and other people use them, so why is it that I can't trust them?

I wonder if there is a phobia of jump rings, and what would it be called?

Here are a few photos of my first necklace.  Amazingly it's sold already!

I didn't even get a chance to give it a name :)
