Yesterday, at 6am, Mr S and I set off for Portscatho, Cornwall to take part
in the Homespun Fair.
We love this little trip down to the Roseland peninsula.
If it hadn't been for Christine, Jane and Gertie organising
this event then we may never have fallen in love
with this little 'jewel of a place'!
The views are stunning and the walk along the coast path
just HAS to be done.
When the fair was over, we did a mad dash down the hill
to get to Christine's delightful shop,
'The Sea Garden'.
I loved this painting, hanging on her wall.
And the shop was crammed full of delightful things.
And the Homespun Fair?
Well that was delightful too OF COURSE!
There was a good mix of gorgeous, vintage items
and beautiful, handmade creations.
We met up with some lovely people..and...quite unexpectedly...
I've found myself signing up to do another fair this coming Saturday!
This time, it'll be near north Cornwall coast, at a place called St Agnes!
More details to follow re:
'VINTAGE IN A TEACUP' !!
So watch this space!!
;-)
Looks fabulous! Lucky tourists to get such a wonderful vintage treat whilst in the area. 'Vintage in a Teacup' sounds extremely promising too!

I really must take exception to this blog
ReplyDeleteWhere oh where are more pictures of the lovely Meggy Moo?
Now she IS gorgeous
What is the point of being a Granfer well connected to the blogger herself, if there are no perks
Come on Snippets, get it sorted
PS
Sorry blogland, you may tire of her as a subject but hopefully appreciate that I never will
Wow hoe pretty is that place! Love the images from the fair too :)
ReplyDeleteAll things nice...
Thanks for the great pics Sal, and so glad you love coming down to Portscatho and our Fair! It's lovely people like you dedicating their time and effort to travel all the way to be with us that makes Homespun such an enjoyable event. Hope your other fair goes well for you too!
