Vintage Event Middle Farm

It was terribly cold at the weekend event but everyone involved worked very hard to make it a great success. Some absolutely gorgeous things but I was very restrained; I am after all decreasing my vintage stock not adding to it. Honestly.

One purchase from Faded Rose Vintage. If you look closely at my expertly captured atmospheric image you will see 'him' on the top shelf left. A push-along Wire Fox terrier. 


To fund my purchase I sold some old favourites, who have gone to really good homes. Well, the squeals from the ladies who bought them make me think they have anyway.

Actually, the Polish rag doll is still with me at the moment, but she is currently looking for a new home before Christmas. Ebay are helping her with that.

I was a bit sad to see Mrs Bunny go, I mean look at that nose. But I must be brave and only keep the things I totally love and can't live without. No nonsense.

  1. Does "decreasing my vintage stock" mean that the plan is to increase your handmade stock - I wonder?
    Good luck!

    1. Definitely moving toward hand crafted. Selling off and gifting old vintage stock. Starting workshops in the New Year. It's a plan.

  2. Decreasing my stock is always my plan ... if only I would put it into practice! Yet more came home with me last weekend and I just know the Fashion Fair I am attending this weekend is going to prove too much of a temptation!
