Merry Magpie Boutique

Some bad photos but good ideas {if I say so myself} from my stall at the Merry Magpie Boutique on Saturday. A luggage label made with my heart hole punch and pink washi tape; red and white striped bags and alphabet index tags, alphabet bunting, mini bunting made with striped string and green tape, and a tartan bow... For the bow, I found it much easier to assemble on a cutting mat first, using a craft knife, and then transfer it to the brown paper afterwards.

From around the fair; I need this bag from Gypsy Gold; Marga from Chocolate Creative; bird tray, and these shoes belong to fair visitor Kerry from the Seventy Tree. Her shoes were just what I'd expect her to wear. {Kerry is incredibly talented, have a look at her blog and shop if you haven't seen them before.} It was lovely to meet her whole family too!


I loved this toy typewriter from Little Toucan; upcycled ceramics from Melody Rose, bird bottle stopper, and a stallholder swap between Melody Rose and Chocolate Creative.

Thanks to Caroline and YES London for organising!

It was such a lovely event. I shyly walked past your stall & now wish I'd stopped to chat & learn. I bought a bow bag, just glimpsed in your photograph & some of the bird trays for my new dressing table.
