There was a steady flow of shoppers right through the day and business was good. I received lots of great feedback on my handmade items and my selection of vintage and retro clothes, accessories and home ware. It was great to meet people face to face and have a chat. It was an eclectic crowd of all ages and lots of items got people talking and brought back memories, particularly some of my tea and coffee sets which seem to have been owned by most families in Leicester!
One of my large crocheted 'Granny' blankets was bought for a lady's pet cat who had been poorly.... My heart shaped bowls were bought for a wedding gift, the cake stand for a housewarming gift and my Silver Jubilee plate is going to be made into a tiered cake stand (its new owner said she would drill a whole directly through the Queen's head!!)...... My favourite sale of the day was my vintage long black wool cape which was bought by a burlesque artist who may use it in her act!
My old badge collection from the 70s and 80s was also a popular talking point - I sold lots of them!
All in all, it was a huge success and I'm already looking forward to the next one on Saturday 25th February 10 - 4. See you there x
