I am tired this morning, and should be writing a letter to go with a parcel of books, but think I will send the letter later or I'll never get out of the house this side of lunchtime.
A pair of chickens - a daft buy, but people like chickens and they always sell. The one on the back had the tip of its tail broken off (that morning I think), so got them cheaply and have Gorilla-glued it back in place.
I call this the French corner as all the stock is from France (above and below). Not quite sure who would buy a painting with what looks like actual mud on the bottom, but hey ho . . . I bet that came cheap!
Nice but too heavy to carry. I had taken the camping trolley back to the car by this point.
I liked this but have no more room for paintings.
The pick of the bunch - this is a beautiful Welsh quilt.
Nice and cheerful and very like the ones I've made - sent the girls off to Uni with one each. Gabby's I got back, and extended it so it is now on my bed for the summer.
Not to my taste,
Sorry, the colours got washed out because it was in bright light.
The seller said that this was American . . .
At the entrance to the drive-in barns. A mixture of stuff.
Part of the stall which had the nice orchard painting last time.
A gorgeous ginger jar. I didn't even ask the price because it was so nice it wasn't going to be cheap. I can hear Keith at my elbow saying you should always ask the price!
About 85% of the stalls look very similar to this one (or have more metal or wooden things, or furniture). The tin with the cap on it is just like one my mum kept her pegs in when I was a kid.
A modern reproduction. People don't have very large kitchens in modern houses and this takes up a lot of room.
Two intriguing saddles. The top one is from Kazachstan. It was cheap enough, but although interesting (to me), they have a niche market. I loved the inked design on the leather.
Stumped with this one. Probably from a similar area but the seat so short only a tiny child could sit on it - Mongolian? It didn't come home with me.
