Today we spent a pleasant afternoon at the Norwich Costume and Textile Associations annual fair at Wolterton Hall in Norfolk… Although the setting for the fair is just perfect with the stands set up in the house itself, personally I’m not over keen on this event. Its probably the ‘vintage’ snob in us but there just seemed to be too many stalls selling stuff that didn’t really relate to textiles… new/secondhand costume jewellery etc and a lot of the stalls that were doing textiles weren’t really our thing. Still we managed to buy some items for members of out non vintage family and it was fun to look around the beautiful house and grounds. The theme of this years event was childhood and some of the displays and stalls really were beautiful (see its not all negative)… I managed to take a few snaps inside the house before being asked to stop….I wasn’t using a flash so I guess it must have been for security reasons..

This room setting was just stunning, beautifully put together with love and attention to detail..


Susie from Forget Me Nots in Holt had a room to herself with loads of beautiful items….

This Vintage Britans greenhouse is great fun….

If you peep through the door, someone is hard at work!

The greenhouse fits in perfectly…with Woltertons walled garden….

Its not some foreign tounge! Just pure Norfolk!
