Real nostalgia came with a trip to the Little Vintage Lover Fair on Sunday. I found out about it from one of my favourite blogs, Kitschen Pink. ( This just goes to prove that the hours I spend on the laptop reading about other people’s lives are not entirely wasted)
It was a lovely way to spend a sunny sunday morning in August. A drive into the heart of the Norfolk countryside to the beautiful little village of Heydon, where the village hall was a early 20th century army hut, a perfect meeting place for a crowd of vintage lovers!
There were stalls both inside and outside the hall – thank goodness for a sunny day!
It was here I met not only Kitschen Pink, but also Mrs Bobobun and Faded Splendour and saw all sorts of lovely things I would have bought if only I could throw out another wing on my little house! (Visit these blogs for lots more photos of all the tempting bits and pieces.)
Meeting them adds a whole new dimension to blog surfing!
And I did buy this, it’s very small, but perfectly formed …!
Dear Penny, I work for the Bronte Parsonage Museum in Haworth, and we’re doing a felt flower-making workshop soon. Because we haven’t yet made the flowers we don’t have any pictures, obviously, and I was wondering if it would be at all possible to use your felt flower pic (the one on the Kath Kidston background) above, to put into a promotional leaflet we’re producing. Of course, if the answer is No, I’ll understand. Thank you, Penny, and love your site!
All the best,
Julie Akhurst
Communications Officer
