Vintage at the Merchant City Festival, Glasgow
Just back from a fabulous
morning at the Merchant City Festival in Glasgow. I wanted to be there early before it got too
busy and too hot - I'm glad I did!
My favourite part was the
Vintage Maretplace - lots of stalls in Ingram Street car park. My favourite was Hollie Berries beautiful
stall full of vintage china and bits and pieces - gorgeous! (In case you are wondering - the huge hedgehog at the back is part of a mural!!)
I also love Gillian Kyle items
- bags, mugs, tea towels etc all depicting good old Scottish favourites like
plain bread and Tunnocks teacakes as well as a few other instantly recognisable
Scottish necessities! Catherine was
looking after the stall which was full of fabulous bits and pieces.
Retro Bazaar had an amazing
collection of vintage phones and furniture.
Two of the other fabulous
stalls were - Love Me Again with gorgeous homeware, and Emily Rose Vintage who
had some lovely painted furniture.
Love these two - a Gramophone
DJ and a gorgeous vintage thingy which served as a florists.
These lovely ladies posed for
me while they waited for the Charleston Brunch at the Old Fruitmarket - don't
they look amazing!
I had a fabulous morning - there
was loads more to see - lots of food stalls and entertainment, but it got a bit
hot and my feet were sore (I stupidly wore the wrong shoes - d'oh!!!!!).
Hope you are having a great weekend.
Love, Liz

I think it's so awesome that you live in Scotland...one of my lifelong dreams is to visit there.
I instantly fell in love with your blog...

(I did see a lady dressed in a Charleston rig-out in Queen Street station as we were leaving - perhaps she was going to the brunch!)

And I'm so glad you set us straight re. that hedgehog ... I was just staring to wonder what they fed them up there ;)
