What another great day we had despite the yucky weather.

Thank you to all of the lovely people who came in search of gems and vintage treasures from our hard working and talented stall holders.Their displays were inspiring and beautiful with so many tempting items...

Sandy's lunches were delicious and well recieved, such a shame we could not have been sitting outside though! 

The cakes were splendid and I drank plenty of freshly brewed coffee!

As usual I received tonnes of positive comments and praise on behalf of the stallholders and even had a call from a local business thanking me for the increased footfall!

I look forward to getting together another thoroughly decent bunch of folk together again for another

Springtime!

Buttercross Vintage Market ~ 28th April 2012~

I am pleased to say that we are back on the 28th April at the Parish Rooms in Somerton (TA11 7NB) 

The fabulous news is that we are having stallholders on the cobbles outside who will be selling a tempting range of gardenalia, outside furniture, plants and brocante. We shall also be under the Buttercross itself! Built in 1673 it has seen some sales and community spirit!

I can also announce that we shall be running some special VINTAGE CRAFTS WORKSHOPS in the Wessex Rooms in Somerton. I shall post the exact details in due course, but you shall have a unique opportunity to create a beautiful vintage piece for you, or as a gift, using vintage textiles, ribbons, buttons, trimmings etc. There shall be also be a workshop for children and young vintage lovers.

I really feel like I can't wait to Spring to spring!!

Until the next time...x

BUTTERCROSS VINTAGE CHRISTMAS MARKET

Hello all,

Back again to give you the good news that the Buttercross Vintage Market is back! and this time with a Christmassy theme. I am so excited that we are creating a winterwonderland of fabulous vintage textiles, fashion, beautiful handmade gifts and accessories, antiques, decorative furniture and fun items of a quirky nature!

As it happens Somerton will be turning on it's Christmas Lights just after our event so the atmosphere will be lovely.

There will be some great stallholders, lovely live music, a pop-up tea shop serving tasty christmas treats, and an excellent opportunity to do some unique christmas shopping...can't wait!!

It's coming...

So, we've been told summer is over (pah!) and there is a real back-to-school nip in the air. 

My house is a hive of industry getting ready for the Market and sorting out the mountains of stock I've bought recently.

The only problem for me is not keeping some of the beautiful things I've found. I'm really excited about the eclectic mixture of antique, vintage and handmade things everyone will be bringing for the Market and hope that the good folk and Somerset will come out and support us.
