A new addition to the 'Vintage and Handmade Fair' , held earlier today,
in Chipping Sodbury Town Hall, came in the form of the 'bouncers'.
Here they are, all lined up and ready to take their role quite seriously...NOT!
I mean how can you take this seriously...
Mr Custard...behave!!
But I had a stall to set up, fabric to sell and a camera
to take for a walk so I left them to their fun and games!
The 'Vintage and Handmade Christmas Fair' is always very special.
The displays certainly have that Xtra wow factor!
So..for your pleasure...
Click on the photos and they should enlarge.
I didn't get around everyone's stall... but no doubt there will
be plenty more photos on other blogs, over the next few days!
And as for this lot below... I think they should be hired out
for all of the 2011 Vintage Fairs.
(Either that ..or lined up and shot!)
A massive thanks to Michele and Jayne for organising
another wonderful event!
It was well worth the trip from Devon... and lovely
to meet up with so many old friends...and new!
Hope you all had a fab weekend, wherever you were.
I'll be back soonish, as on our journey to Gloucestershire,
Mr S and I dropped in
on a rather mystical, magical place.

Hi, What lovely colourful pics. I think your BOUNCERS looked (almost) menacing! :O) SueXX
ReplyDeleteLooks like another great fair :) I've never made it to a Christmas one due to work :(
ReplyDeleteThose are great photos Sal, please can I take a couple of my stall as I still do not have an "indoor" camera! Sorry we didn't get chance for a natter, it was a busy old day wasn't it! xxx
ReplyDeleteThe Bouncers do look menacing!!! Glad you had a good time

ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of goodies ... I especially like all those vintage Christmas tree deckies!

great photos Sal, really wish I could have been there, but couldn't miss Chris's birthday. sounds like it all went well though and was a good day for everyone, and it certainly looks fantastic and festive.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see you Sal...and thanks for posting so many photos on your blog...I've now spotted so many items I wish I could have bought!
ReplyDeleteYou are a star!

its a lovely fair - hope you did really well. I couldn't make this one as i had my own stall at a vintage and handmade fair near me that weekend xxx
ReplyDeleteOh yea, those bouncers look seriously scary - wouldn't like to come face to face with them on a dark night down a blind alley - particularly if they had brought that custard along!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and reportage as ever Sal. So lovely to see you yesterday.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing what you got up to en route you magical mystery lady you ;-)
Glad you had such a brilliant time
ReplyDeleteLove Linda
Ooh they were scary weren't they?
ReplyDeleteLovely to see you again & pleased you had a good day!

The Bunty and Judy annuals bring back childhood memories and I love the tiny bed with its quilt. I recognise the last little creatures (no I didn't mean the bouncers, I meant the cuties before them!)
ReplyDeleteNot sure there was much bounce in that line up.. They did remind me of an identity parade.. but more hugs than thugs!
ReplyDeleteThanks for catching all the wonderful booty on display.. I failed to take any close up shots as I was doing my usual headless chicken impression most of the day. Wish we could rewind.. it was a great day!

Hello my friend...the fair looks wonderful...where have the days gone, I have been so busy with all the work and knitting...I am having a snow day with polly the fire is lit, I have finished my GCSE marking and now I am knitting a lovely red cashmere hat to go with my new coat which is the new love of my life....I have also covered lots of little boxes with paper mache made from pages from a very old dilapidated book...I am delighted with the results...I hope you are well and keeping warm...its ever so cold here...
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely lot of pictures Sal, I am glad you had a good time at the fair, it looks like it was a great feast of loveliness!
ReplyDeleteTake care
