So I opened the

Flea market Section

I have been taken photos

and created listings all day

 

and I have tons more to share..

if you like

and make sure to visit offen

A {sunday} trip

 

we went on a trip today

The weather was perfect for this kind of stuff

overshadowed and not too warm.

 

I knew of this place but hadn´t been able

to visit before. I believe all the good stuff were gone.

Today was last day.

This place sells props from the old Danish Film

Company 'Nordisk Film'

 

This is how it looked like when entering the barn

 

photo taken with Instagram

 

I were able to find some good stuff though

 

here´s a overlook.

Let´s have closer look of things.

 

A piece of old red velvet fabric

and some pretty rolls of vintage wallpaper

 

a bunch of small tablecloth, doilies, lace pieces,

curtain pieces, embroidered hangkerchiefs.

 

 

and a huge bunch of ephemera

 

I think these are blank signatures

yellowed by age

Perfect for journals

 

and a huge ledger book

 

That´s a pretty good score

if I may say so.

 

I´ve been really lucky these last times

I´ve been fleaing.

Running out of space am I...

 

I´ve been thinking of opening

a flea market section in my shop

to share my finds

What do you think?

Would that be of any interest?

 

Hope you all are enjoying a wonderful sunday.

Preview for Hugglets

The Hugglets Fair in London

is approaching and I have been busy

making bears for that.

22 little ones are finished and there´s still

a few weeks to go - yeaahh

Here´s a little preview of some

of the bears that will come with me to the fair

this is sweet little Gabriel and his friend August.

Both are 3.5 inch and made from mini bear fabric

Tessa and Dehlia

little black Hamilton - he´s such a sweet [heart]

Ophelia in her silver cup

two fellas made from vintage mohair.

Rupert and Isiah - both are 4.5 inch

and this little lady is

Lola in her purse

With still some time, I hope to be

able to finish a few more and then it´s time to

plan the display and prepare the paper work.

The fair is held on Sunday September 9th

Read more about the fair here.

If you´re in the area do come and say hello

the bears and I would love a visit.

Wishing you all a beautiful day

Tina ♥♥♥

This and That

I found these tiny crochet doilies

some time ago - you may remember.

They came home with me after a

visit to Sweden

I created some pretty little tags with them.

Using cardboard and some old book pages

a with a sweet little image on top.

They are perfect for a little gift for someone special

or as a sweet decoration - maybe for christmas

there were only 9 of these tiny crochet doilies

so that´s what there´s gonna be

They are here

*****************

Fall is getting closer - right.

My favorite time of year.

So I finished up a few more wrist warmers

These white ones can be found here.

More wristwarmers in more colors are here.

************

I´m back to the bearmaking.

The Hugglets show is getting closer

and I need to make another few

Here´s the first little preview of

some of the bears that will come with me.

I´ll show you more later this month.

These little ones are only 3.5 inch tall

Aren´t they just cute.

Have a beautiful day everyone

I {heart} Flea Markets

I {heart] flea markets

I know you know

but just in case you didn´t...

A few weeks ago I got a chance to visit

my favorite one - the one I can´t drive

to myself

hubby showed mercy - yeahhh for him

It was a great one.

I found some cool old books.

the big one is filled with wonderful

old photos

an old photoalbum - half full of

cabinet cards and some very cool old hardware

a box full of old lace

here´s a close up of the lace pieces

pretty right....

***

todays was a rainy one

most booths were covered with table cloths

and plastic so it was difficult to see anything

but I did manage to find a few goodies.

a wonderful Villeroy & Boch bowl

with pretty blue pattern.

a beautiful old tablecloth with lots of embroidery

and inserted lace and quite a few dirty spots too, but that doesn´t mind

as I´ll probably cut this for some projects.

 

How about this fun embroidered piece.

I´m not sure what this is called in English, but

in Danish it´s a 'klokkestreng'. meant to be hanged on the wall for

decoration. This one is a calendar with every month embroidered

with a  pretty image and all the dates too.

My plan is to take it apart and use each part alone or

maybe put some of the months up for sale for

repurpose in someone elses projects.

 

little pieces of silverware

and a few tin pieces too.

an old book with funny drawings

and some small ones with old photos.

I think the covers from these two

will be turned into journals

I {heart} flea markets.

Can you tell.....

Here´s to a beautiful sunday

I´m off to watch some olympics

We got a gold yesterday - yeahhh..
