Manly Markets

On Saturday I left nice and early way before my little one woke....I attended my 1st Manly Markets and I must say I was impressed. I loved the atmosphere and people. I will also be doing Manly markets this Saturday...So if you are around come by and say hello....

My set up on the day.

INSPIRATION AT ALLIE'S ATTIC

I want to pay note to some of the lovely stands that surrounded me at the Allie's Attic market on Saturday. The day was full of sunshine, fun and inspiration. Every where to be seen was something beautiful and creative..

Jennie stand Melei I bought the most adorable hat for Harrison this was to go with the pants I bought from her at Mathilda's Market...

I got to meet the lovely Sarah from Rosebarnett both Sarah and Cath's designs are amazing. I just fell in love with the vintage playing card wall mounts if only I did Harrison room up to match....Mmmm maybe I can change it to match ...

And of course the lovely Lisa from the red thread was there showing her lovely creations I'm still in love with her little dolls house with the white picket fence display.

Sarah from Madi and Me were selling some lovely dresses in Vintage Santa fabrics and I just have to have one for a gift this Christmas...

Other wears I just couldn't resist were some lovely bamboo hand cloths/hankies from Lixi designs and a stroller insert from Oshii.

ALLIE'S ATTIC HANGOVER

I'm so happy to say that Allie's Attic at Hunters Hill on Saturday was a success. Although the crowds were a little down on what I had anticipated I put this down to the hot day. However I made the most my down time and walked around and meet a lot of lovely ladies and lads whom had wonderful stalls....Thanks to those of you who came by to say hello and it was lovely to met some new faces...I will have to post some photos of some of the stands that I feel in love with on the day...Stay tuned..

Such a lovely setting for a market.

The quality of stall holders were right up there and had such lovey wears. The grounds were just gorgeous and really added to the feel of the day....I was without child on Saturday and got to spend some time with my husband which was a joy and I wouldn't have been able to attend Allie's without his help...SO a big thanks honey!

My stand on the day. I was lucky to have been given a lovely spot..And was able to spread out...The only bummer was the sun and the sun burn to go along with it.

My new birdcages were a hit with the customers.


Hello to my new mini Owls and guess what "They squeak"

The favourite of the day would have to be the mushrooms.

I sold out of my mushroom family's....SO I guess back to the sewing machine for me as I have Bathurst Markets coming up this week and lots of orders to finish and post.

CAUGHT IN A CAGE

Today I spent the day working on a new and improved baby bird mobile. I'm so happy with this design cause the baby can look up at the birdie moving gently in the breeze. I have also used fabrics some antique style fabrics mainly cause I will be attending the Allie's Attic Markets on the 14th Nov and wanted to create something that fits with the antique look of the markets.

This Birdie along with many others will be available at my stall next Saturday.

I will be located inside the hall be sure to stop in and say hello.

Harrison was such a great help today with making the cages (Don't worry it's not turned on.) He loved copying me and thought it was great when I let him help me. He loves the birdies in the cage and was more then happy to lend a hand.

ONE DOWN.... MANY MORE TO COME...

Well the end has come to Mathilda's Markets.

The day was very successful and I had a blast meeting lots of lovely ladies and husbands..and catching up with a few friends that I made during this year. Every ones stands looked amazing and there was so much new and exciting items available. I happened to buy a few shorts and pants for Harrison as I find it hard to get lovely pants for boy's but was able to control my self this time around to my husbands joy. My stand at Mathilda's Market was jam packed with goodies I just love my new JACK blocks that I made for the market they were a huge hit and have lots of orders to get done over the next 3 weeks..Ahhhh....

Harrison looking very dapper in his matching Onesie, Bib and Crown.. He was a little handful for daddy on the day and to Daddy's amazement he did number 2's twice ...welcome to my world mister was all I had to say when he came to me shocked.

Overall it was a great day HOT but great and now having a little break before the made rush to get things finished for Allies Attic..
