Stockport Vintage Village 13.04.14

I love my monthly trip to Stockport vintage village there are always lovely people, treasures to be found and delicious food to be eaten! This Sunday it was warm enough to get my bike out and ride to the fair :)

Stuart Thornley was there with his fantastical cakes! I wasn't brave enough to try the dippy egg cake but did have a hot cross bun cupcake and got some Rocky road with mini eggs to take home for Tom

 This stall had so many gorgeous vintage picnic sets gleaming away in the sun

 Love the pretty flasks and tins

 Think I like the blue one best

 I liked this little Swedish plate

Also spotted a box of old film reels from the Picturehouse in my home town of Bury St Edmunds!

Castlefield Artisan Market

I spent a very enjoyable Sunday afternoon over at the Castlefield Artisan market today! I think I first read about it on Nadinoo's blog and was so glad I sought it out despite all the sludgy snow.

Top eats included a delicious pie from the award winning great north pie company, some blue stilton, and bread and cakes from of crust and crumbs. Entertainment came in the form of some great swing music and dancing from the cotton town hot club.

The market will be held on the first Sunday of each month alongside the canal near Dukes 92.

I also popped into topshop on my way home to see if I could find anything to spend my christmas vouchers on! I have been eyeing up this gogo philip necklace for a while and now it is all mine. mwah ha ha :)
