The Vintage Bazaar!


























































































Well today started early (5.00am to be precise!) and off we went to Frome packed up with hats, corsages, jewellery, fascinators etc etc...We arrived and unpacked, ready to start the day. There were so many wonderful stalls selling exquisite vintage delights that it was difficult to focus on setting up and before we knew it it was 9am and the customers started coming in. We had the lovely Jack and Mr Darling on the front desk and Edwin http://http//www.blindlemonvintage.co.uk kindly helped too, looking very dapper indeed! We were kept busy all day and we had over 1000 visitors....apparently we blocked the roads through Frome several times during the day as people tried to park..sorry Frome! There was a great atmosphere all day and we even had some famous faces turn up too. Despite one of our two makeover ladies being ill my eldest and her friend still managed to have a 40's makeover, victory rolls and lipstick!









Thank you so much to everyone who turned up, stallholders and customers for making the day such a great success...here's to the next one!

Nearly There Now......






















Firstly apologies for being a rubbish blogger over the past month or so...it's all The Vintage Bazaar's fault http://thevintagebazaar.blogspot.com/. I've been really pleased with the response from the press both locally and nationally so its had a really good plug! Its very nearly time for the event itself and to say I'm a bit excited about it is an understatement...and nervous! I thought I would give you a little taster of some of the things that will be coming with me. As well as my deco hats there are also some new smaller editions coming, and some recycled jewellery pieces as well. I look forward to seeing you all there...do pop and say hello to me..I'll be the one looking flustered but happy!!
