Fun at the Fair....

This is where I was yesterday.......New College Durham.
A great venue for a Vintage and Retro Fair in the North East of England.

Dealers from Scotland, Cumbria, Yorkshire, Lancashire and locally, gathered together to provide a colouful display for the public.

Set in the East, West and Link Malls of the College, the Fair provides space for 120 stands of vintage goodies....






The view from the balcony.....


Through the trees.....



By the end of the day there was not much left on the gorgeous Helen's table



 And most of my curtains, cushions and fabric disappeared too...


But most importantly I managed to buy some nice new things .....some to keep and some to recycle.

So keep tuned for next installment, back soon.....

    Looks like a fantastic fair, and lots of goodies to buy. That is a rather lovely patchwork cushion I can see in the last photo. Glad you had a great day.
