Fair Goodies

I hope you've all enjoyed the long weekend

The Vintage & Handmade Fair was great fun and lovely as always to meet up in person with a few blog friends

Kelly & I were to busy looking at all the stalls and chatting to everyone to take any photos but I'm sure you'll be visiting those involved to see their pictures

So you want to know what I brought?


I was rather restrained buying only 2 things.... although one was an eiderdown from the well known Donna Flower so definitely an investment piece!

The rest of the weekend was spent playing with my new sideboard


and moving the chest of drawers that were there into my craft room


So my Bank Holiday weekend was the perfect mix of days out and organising - how was yours?

Glad the trip out went well. Bank Holiday was lovely here too but was sunless and felt a little short! :D xx

gorgeous purchase. I'm so glad you weren't in NY this past weekend, with all the drama going on there.

Weekend was nice. Bit of gardening, lots of cooking and eating, chilling out and getting ready for a week of chaos. Will be glad to get this week out of the way, have to say. Not really a fan of mess and constantly making tea for workmen. Worth it in the end. Just glad had a nice peaceful weekend beforehand. :O)

Was going to say Have a good Monday, but it's Tuesday. I'm going to be confused all week. Does not take much to muddle my pea brain!
