“Granny Would Be Proud” is the bestest Vintage & Crafts event in THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD (Glasgow…west end…okay, Vinecombe St -I think that’s a claim I can safely make, but it IS awesome).
“Small but perfectly formed vintage and craft fair, followed by down to earth fashion and craft lovers, enough love for all, from Punks to Goths, Retro to Indie. Smiley sellers guaranteed, very affordable (nothing over £50), retro and games tea room.”
. . . .
GWBP has made a cosy wee home in the Hillhead Bookclub and SpoiltPig is thrilled to be part of the furniture now and exhibiting at the fair again THIS SUNDAY 15th August 2010.
Please do stop by. Come check out the all the unique, handmade designer wares and vintage and retro fashions….you may even like to pick yourself(me) up a gramophone filled with delicious cocktails(true story, they really do have gramophones filled with booze)!
SEE YOU THERE
EDIT: Yes, we’re still on for Sunday…but i forgot to mention that the delightful Bunny from “Bunny and The Misshapes” is swapping the microphone for ‘making’ this weekend and will be joining me at the table with her own unique collection of re-worked vintage pieces and beaded jewellery. Exciting!

I’ve just had the best two weeks ever :) Bit of a mad rush to prepare for the four markets I’ve just finished but it was totally worth it. Everyone was excellent.
Meet my stall buddy heh heh heh:
Alex Penter – I Love Lexy
Sloans market was definitely my favourite. Bestest customers in the world! Friendly and polite and lots of good chat. Oh wait, except the one lady who threw my necklace back down, loudly declaring her disgust and disappointment that it was infact made of resin and not stone. Slightly amused at the fact she thought such a thing existed as purple leopard print stone…with embedded silk bows, less amused at the insults and the chucking of the jewellery :( I need to get tougher and not let teeny things like this upset me.
ANYWAY everyone else was absolutely lovely and made me very very warm with happy thoughts (and monies in my pocket, now planned for Christmas time in Bath instead of New year in Morocco). Last fair was today in Aberdeen, fairly quiet but a fun day, cosy warm indoors with mulled wine, more good chat and hanging out with cool folk.
I also met some husky dogs today! Gave them a little cuddle and got my face slobbered on. Excellent end to a busy fortnight!
