The Vintage Bazaar Floor Plan

Sorry for the freehand style of the plan, but just wanted to give everyone an idea of where they are in relation to each other. There are doors along the sides of the hall which you can unload through. This is NOT to scale, in reality there is more space between the rows/stalls. If you click on the image you will be able to see clearly the names on the stands.

Flyers, Flyers everywhere!


I have had a bit of a stressful time lately. After ordering 1500 flyers back in the spring for the Vintage bazaar, I tried to order more at the end of August (plenty of time, or so I thought!)
To cut a long and rather tedious story short.. 1500 flyers arrived the first week in September with a great image of the French shop interior on the front and absolutely NOTHING on the reverse....I have been fighting ever since to get this order replaced, and finally yesterday 3000 flyers arrived! Not a gesture of goodwill, just total incompetence! So, if anyone needs more flyers I can easily post them.. or hand them to you at any of the fairs in the next few weeks. I will be at Chagford Rag fair this coming Saturday, the 2nd October. Mr Jack will be at the
Stroud Vintage fair the same day (and will have a pile of flyers with him to hand out). I will then be at Honiton on Tuesday the 5th October, followed by Newark on Thursday and Friday. Totnes is my destination on Saturday the 9th for the Nostalgic Mix fair and then Shepton Flea on Sunday the 10th. See you somewhere!

As seen in Sew Hip magazine this month!

The Vintage Bazaar advertsing campaign is in full swing now. This months Sew Hip magazine have given us a great write-up with the title "An Antique Extravaganza" (I like it)
Of course the article goes on to mention the talented makers and the make-over ladies.

The article below caught my eye in the magazine, a four page spread on vintage sewing patterns and how to make the most of using them. Well worth a look for anyone who is into vintage.
