July Bicycle Basket Bazaar


Today was the July Bicycle Basket Bazaar in Northampton's old Fish Market hall. The sun was shining and the fair was buzzing with activity. I came away with a wonderful little haul of treasures including a very sweet old umbrella in a mint green striped case and a couple of lovely old jam pots as well as a pretty rosy cup and saucer. I caught up with some friends and discussed plans for our own Vintage and Homemade fair with a couple of the basketeers. The fair is taking place in Northampton at St Matthews church rooms on Nov 7th and we are now starting to confirm bookings with some of the sellers. The wonderful 'Elsie Sparrow' (Lindsay) will be one of the sellers with her vintage inspired handmade children's clothes and gifts. She always has such a beautiful display at the bike bazaar and will be bringing her lovely old bicycle and basket laden with goodies to our fair.
