Inspiration - mel made this


I went to London's Vintage fair on the Southbank on Friday. Didn't actually pay for a ticket to go in, but there were loads of stalls to see outside and take inspiration from. One of the stalls was the below Mel Made This. Mel is an upholsterer and collector of vintage fabrics and makes items to sell on her website. Love her logo below!

Visit - ardingly antiques fair

I went to Ardingly vintage fair in West Sussex yesterday and took a few snaps. It was a really hot day and takes a while to walk round as it is so massive! I went with a couple of friends and had a fantastic time, it was like the best car boot sale ever! All the good things in one place, I loved it.

I loved the vibrant colours that the mix of similar items produced, like these knitting needles, vases etc below...

Vintage fabrics and children's toys.


















A thoroughly good day out if you love to rummage, definitely recommend it!
