This week I have mostly been trying, Trying, TRYING to get organised for two days at the Maltings tomorrow and Sunday.
But I've dithered and prevaricated and procrastinated - there have been diversions and dead-ends and side-tracks...
Oh dear - I think I need to become a proper list person. The sort who makes a list and then refers to it, not the sort who MIGHT make a list, but then forgets to look at it.
Anyway, I did get some things done, just not the things I thought I'd get done.
There have been baby dresses to sell...
 |
One in Liberty fabric, which I bought a while back, one from a slightly holey tablecloth, with floral bias hem...
...and one from vintage (rather floppy) gingham, with a removable flower...
There have been key rings...
Beach huts and cottages...
Bird houses (Version I)...
...and Version II...
(I like Version I better - often seem to do this. make something - try to improve it - fail and wish I'd stuck with the original!)
Tonight I decided to follow Sophie's example and have some pretty flowers decorating my table tomorrow, so I went and raided the front garden, grabbed a sweet jug I got from a car boot last year and 'arranged' them. I was rather pleased with the 'thrown together' look I achieved, and just love the colours of the various flowers I managed to find!
Have a great weekend, and if you are near Farnham and fancy a mooch, the Maltings will be well worth a visit, either for the monthly market tomorrow, or for 'Vintage' on Sunday. And if you come along, do say hello to me!
I love the idea of that baby dress made out of an old tablecloth - very enterprising. If only I knew a baby to give it to!
ReplyDeleteI really wish we had a baby in the family, then all three of those gorgeous little dresses would be winging their way to Lancashire (I am greedy) Beautiful flowers, but I couldn't help but notice the vintage family photos behind the vase. If you are anything like me those will be amongst your most precious possessions.
ReplyDeleteLovely baby dresses they are gorgeous

I also love the little tablecloth dress. Clever you. Have a good weekend, I'm sure you'll sell all your goodies. I love both birdhouse versions for what it's worth. Love Katie x
