The Treasury Market

Whenever December is around the corner, the busyness just increases exponentially! I can definitely do with a holiday soon. Somewhere out of the city, where its quiet, and I can just put my feet up and chill! Aaaah .....

But in the meantime, I'm very busy making lots of stock for the new Treasury Market. Im so excited for it! Its this coming Friday the 2nd December in Stellenbosch at the Oude Libertas. The Stellenbosch Food Market will be happening as well, so there will be loads of yummy snacks around to fuel your shopping :)

Come and check out the market! Its going to be really great - the traders at the market have some amazing stuff! Check out The Treasury Market website or their Facebook page for some more info.

Hope to see you there!

Favourite Things Spring Fair!

After the success of the first Winter market, Favourite Things is having their Spring Fair market this coming Saturday, 1st October! Im really looking forward to it.

There are some vendors that have come on board for this market, so expect much more! It will be happening at the same space - Unit 7 in Wembley Studios, which is just opposite Wembley Square. The time has also been extended for you early morning shoppers too, doors open at 10am and we'll be selling until 3pm! LOTS of time to make sure you get all of your favorite things :)

There will be snacks and drinks available, as well as credit card machines and EFT facilities, for those of you that don't carry cash.

Looking forward to seeing you there - please come say hi if you do come, its always great to meet your readers :)

Have a happy Spring week everyone!

Favourite Things Winter Fair!

Wow, what a weekend! Firstly, a big thank you to everyone who braved the weather and came out to the market on Saturday! It was such a great afternoon with loads of lovely things on sale. I wanted to walk out with something from every stall, everything was amazing. It was a great success and achievement for Heather's Leathers, as it was my first market. Thank you to all who bought brooches - you made my day!

I met some wonderful people at the market, customers and other sellers alike. One of which was Leila from Bow Peep. Such beautiful things she makes! She uses fabric, ribbon and fabric covered buttons to make her creations. And she makes brooches! How cool - brooches AND buttons! Two of my favorite things :) If I had the money, I would have bought everything off her table! I did however, get the most gorgeous brooch made by Leila herself! Make sure you check out her website!

I took a couple of snaps before the market started and the madness ensued :) Here are a couple of my favorites:
