Last week we enjoyed a fantastic day out at The Handmade Fair! Here's what we got up to....
The Handmade Fair was set in the beautiful grounds of Hampton Court Palace. The sun was shining, so we enjoyed a stroll around even before we got to the main event!
The pompoms we made for #World Pomination were gratefully received and it was lovely to see everyone's contributions all strung together.
The actual fair was a mix of stalls, workshops and demonstrations in large marquees beautifully decorated with bunting and vintage accessories. There was a lovely, relaxed vibe with lots of friendly welcoming faces. We of course had to sample the yummy ice cream too!
It looks like you had a lovely day at the fair. Your photos are amazing. I'm sure you had a great time.
ReplyDeleteWe had a fantastic day & can't wait until the next one! x
DeleteLooks sunny and great fun and the Lino prints look like they give really interesting textures.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely crafty week, Alison
Thanks Alison, hope you have a fun filled, crafty week too! x
DeleteWhat a fab day! Love your prints. Looks like Melody enjoyed herself as well! xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Jen. Think Melody fancied her hand at lino printing too! x
DeleteI would have loved to have gone, but it's a little far from me in Devon! Looks like you had a great time, and Melody looks like she had fun too!
ReplyDeleteWe had a fab time, thanks. A bit of a trip for you from Devon though :) x
DeleteIt was really interesting to read your account - I was invited but it's such a long trip I couldn't find the time out to come along. It won't be long before Melody is trying to join in!! x
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy. You're never too young to start crafting!! x
DeleteIt looks very much as though fun was had by all! I love the scotty dog picture :)
ReplyDeleteHe was very cute & must have been done by someone with very green fingers! x
DeleteSounds like a lovely day out. The pom poms looked fabulous! Wonder if the stall holders found it worthwhile, it's be good to think some events were worth doing!!
ReplyDeleteIt was really busy in all the tents, so hopefully it was good for all the stall holders! x
DeleteThe fair looks amazing, I wonder how long the finished pom pom trail was.
ReplyDeleteThe pompoms were part of a world record attempt - but haven't heard if they broke it or not! x
DeleteIt looks like a wonderful event and your lino prints are gorgeous! I really hope they hold another event next year because I'd love to go :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Carie. We're crossing our fingers that there will be another event next year too! x
DeleteThe fair looked great! Heard so much praise about it.
ReplyDeleteIt was brilliant! x
