So much to do...

...sooo little time!!

Where does the time go.....one minute it was April - the next halfway through September!

In the meantime though....i have attended some brilliant events and fairs - with lots more to come.....

From this weekend it is pretty much go go go....from The UK's BIG Vintage & Fashion Fair at the Lights in Leeds city centre this weekend ....have a look at the events page HERE for all the info...

I am please to be back at the next Vintage Event at the BBC......and the next Kitsch and Stitch event and on the 30th Sept i am please to be involved in the Macmillan Worlds Biggest Coffee Morning in Teddington

We had a fabulous piece written about us on a fabulous website - A Gifted Existence - read it here.... i met the lovely Lucy when she visited our stand at the Thames Festival - ....Lucy was also accompanied by the most adorable Beagle/Basset Hound puppy - so very cute!

Despite a very wet few spells we had a nice time at the festival - missed the fireworks even though we had a perfect view - oops! 

Also visited the Cinnamon Tree Bakery while i was there - yuuuuummmm is all i can say!! Now - i love all things baked - but biscuits are usually far down on my list of priorities....usually aim for the cup cakes - but these gorgeous treats were far to tempting and pretty.  We had a selection of 4 different ones including their signature cinnamon cookie and shortbread owl....delicious!  Have a visit at www.thecinnamontreebakery.co.uk   


And finally...lots of new items in creation from Storybook bunting ....handmade crackers...some stunning new candle collections, vintage haberdashery jars and beautiful linens....

until the next time.....
