Beachside Brocante


 





From now on the Beachside Brocante in Deal on the first Bank holiday in May is my favorite vintage hunting ground. There where so many interesting stalls. One of my best buys that day was a green Fiesta jug.

Make sure you put that date in your calender for next year.

see you,
Kay


PS:  I'm crazy about The Passenger.

wooden spoons



 
 
Not sure why but wooden spoons make my heart beat faster. I just love them. Jill Swan& Louis Ellis had a wonderful show at the Horsebridge. Jill is also giving workshop  spoon carving, guess Mister Kay would enjoy that very much.
 
I was lucky to take one spoon home ,they were selling so fast.
 
see you,
Kay
 
PS:   Jill Greenberg's work is amazing

Marti Murchison





Marti had her wonderful pop-up store at the Show Off Gallery in Whitstable last week. I must say her little shop looked amazing. I fell a bit in love with the blue dress, very much Laura Ashley Style.

She will be back in October with some other friends of mine, so if you are around make sure you pay her a visit to have a look for yourself.

see you,
Kay

PS: Lounge on the farm, on my summer list.

floppy summer hats



 
Hi There,
 
We had two fantastic weeks. I think this was our best holiday in a long time. We enjoyed lots of simple pleasures: 
  • daily long family beach walks 
  • lots of tea
  • going plant hunting (driving home with a car full of plants & vintage)
  • visiting the vintage fair at the beach in Deal (the location was amazing)
  • meeting friends
  • enjoying the sun (finally I could wear my floppy summer hats)
 
Lot's more soon. Now it's time to unpack the suitcases and do some washing.
 
see you,
Kay and family
 
PS: Our music in the car the last couple of days the new CD from Caro Emerald.
