Retro and vintage wares are still enjoying a huge surge of popularity, so I thought I’d take a peek into the life of a seller who specialises in all things vintage, retro and kitsch… Sarah, of VintageRetroKitsch, doesn’t just sell all things vintage, she lives them. A visit to her house is enough to reveal [...]

It’s been a very long day but I thought I would come and share some photos before I turn in for the night. Today I had a stall at Kensal Flea (I was last there in June) and it was, once again, a fun and successful day. First up we have the obligatory photos of [...]

All the fun of the fair

Fairs and markets are something which I do occasionally, and really ought to do more often. There’s no denying that they’re hard work, but I really enjoy the opportunity to see what people think of my work first hand. Making sales is also a good thing! I haven’t done any since December, which is a [...]

Yesterday saw the second New Vintage event at the Living Bar in Brixton, and it was a roaring success! Here’s a photo round-up of the day. My stall… still struggling to fit everything onto a small pub table, but we were given a low table to use together with it and that worked brilliantly as [...]

The fair at Orley Farm School on Saturday went well, and good wholesome fun was had by all. I forgot to take my camera with me so had to rely on the photos Matt took with his phone. My two favourite things from other stalls were this giant cupcake and this fantastic tree decoration!

I’m very late in posting an update on what happened at The New Vintage last weekend, but in my defence it’s been a busy week, not helped by coming down with a rotten cold. The first event was definitely a success! The Living Bar is a lovely venue, there was a good range of stalls, [...]

What’s in this gorgeous red tin then? A selection of clever and beautiful cards by Jennifer Bishop of Architette Studios. I stumbled across her work last year and fell in love with it, and my first crush was on her city skyline series. Beautiful, detailed and elegant – what more could you want? Jennifer also [...]
