 Clare and I are now attempting to put our feet up for 5 minutes after yet another busy day at The Vintage Bazaar in Frome. Our wonderful stall holders did us proud yet again with a fabulous range of stock displayed in the most imaginative and eye catching way.

 There was certainly something for everyone yesterday in The Cheese and Grain in Frome. It was National Vinyl day and that didn't go unnoticed!

 Debbie's garden stand was stunning and I know she was busy all day.

 Emma's stand (Box Mad) with our very own Singing Starlet on the stage.

 As you can, the pictures speak for themselves....

 So, a big thank you to all the staff at the Cheese and Grain, the stall holders and all the customers who came, smiled, laughed, spent and complimented us on another successful Vintage Bazaar. Our next event in Frome is on Saturday June 30th.  The Giant Rag Market which will be a slightly different type of event, but hopefully just as popular. Details will be posted here in the next few weeks.

The Rag and Remnant Rummage in Trull, Somerset

 The start of the "Trull Transformation".... Donna's empty shelves waiting to be stacked high with textiles for the first Rag and Remnant Rummage which took part in Trull Memorial Hall near Taunton yesterday.

 The hall soon filling up with stallholders and you can just see Ted assembling their impressive stall.....

 Bargains to be had.... beautiful textiles to be rummaged (looking very tidy at the start of the day!)

 The wonderful Wendy & Min getting ready in the kitchen....

 The customers were soon pouring into the hall and snapping up the bargains. Here is the glamorous Dee from Dee Dee's retro delights blog with her amazing hat (just purchased!) It suits you so well!

The rummage was well underway, and that is the end of my photos.. there are bound to be many more in blogland, so will add the links later...for example here!..here and here.....

 Thank you to all the great stall holders who made such efforts with their stands, and a big thank you to all the customers who came with smiles and enthusiasm. We also are indebted to local business and sewing groups who helped to spread the word about this new event. We will be back in Trull later in the year, the date is booked for Saturday 27th October, so hope to see you there!
