wedding fair

A good day last Sunday at the Vintage Wedding Fair in Frome.
A frantic scramble to get my 'market stall' together, (only collecting the wrought iron frame on Friday!!) but then of course a delightful hour twining ivy and garlands, arranging vintage china, piles of linen, milk churns and flowers etc.
Lovely to meet potential clients who were visiting from far afield and also to get to know the other stall holders and make lots of great new contacts, from vintage car hire, old style photographers, retro video companies, caterers with stunning special cakes and fantastic florists! You can check out www.discovervintage.co.uk to see the list of exhibitors, but updates will be made to my links page in due course...
Here, hopefully(it's always a bit hit and miss!!) is a photo of the new cushions...sewing machine out again tomorrow for the next batch!

Wehhey!! I did it!!!
These will be £1.00 each to hire.. a bargain!

We have had our first hiring of the season,( before things go mad in May!) the lovely Three Peaks marquee.. and luckily we were able to dry and dismantle the tent in-between deluge upon deluge of rain! Oh the joys of hiring marquees!!!

April Antics!!

Carrying on with a bit of alliteration in my titles!!

Derek and I have created a new ad for the (very few) publications I advertise in. I have just tried to upload it, but have failed aaah!! Will try to upload an image of one of the new Chivari banquet chairs instead.. Smudge is investigating!!

We are soooo busy, and have a few new members to our erection team now to cope with the hectic summer to come. Masses of events all over the country it seems, we will be very busy.

Meanwhile I am spending in anticipation! I am just about to purchase a lovely Indian tent to add to the collection..pictures to follow soon. The 100 Chivari chairs are here and unless we hire more storage, I think there is room for no more new stock. Oh, apart from the 100 seat cushions that I am frantically sewing! They are so pretty (again, pics to follow).

A very exciting web site development, you can now highlight an icon on my price list and see a picture of the item. I am still taking photos of all the stock items, so images will be added all the time.

There is always work to do and the next job is to try and give a rough transport costs guide on the web site, not easy, but we will try! Thanks for looking, more soon....
