Love Letters to Strangers

I've been feeling a little blue lately. Things like this are lovely and remind me that there is joy and goodness tucked away in small places.

20% off Vintage Wares this Saturday

The Vagrant Duck is making its market debut on Saturday at the BrisStyle Eco Market!

To celebrate, all lovely vintage wares will be 20 per cent off for market visitors.

Exciting! Pop over to my etsy store, have a browse and if there is anything you would love at a discounted price (and minus the postage too, I might add), drop me a line and I will bring it along for you. Any pre-orders will get a free gift too - hooray!

I will also be bringing a swag of other vintage goodies that have not yet been listed on etsy.

littlechrissy goods will, of course, be making an appearance. Every brooch or wall hanging purchase comes with a free set of vintage stamp gift tags.

Market prep - Brooches and Mo's

The BrisStyle twilight market is only two weeks away!

I've been busy making brooches...

They are the perfect gift for the lady in your life!

Also, big news!
Moustache and Monocle Wallhangings are back in my etsy store!

Watch this space over the next few weeks for more goodies.

Christmas gift tags are back

Vintage postage stamp gift tags are back in time for Christmas!

Have you thought about Christmas yet? I've done about half of my shopping. I like to buy my gifts early and online so I don't have to deal with crowds, and so I get lots of parcels in the mail.
Getting in early leaves me plenty of time to think about other important things like food and decorations. But mainly food.

littlechrissy loves...
Chimaera Shop's incredibly vivid hand-stitched brooches.

I've bought a few Timber! design tees for the men in my life and they've always gone down a treat.

Block Party Press makes really unusual jewellery made from distressed polymer clay. Plus she's from Baltimore, which is one of my fave cities, so she's extra cool in my books.

A blog about small people

We've just started IVF.

As a way of dealing with the overwhelming nature of it all, I've started keeping a blog which is separate from this one. Because to be honest the process of it feels quite alien, as if it's happening to someone else.

It's at www.storkstalking.wordpress.com

I have never used wordpress before and don't know what possessed me to do so this time. I cannot figure out how to make the bloody heading look any different! Any advice welcome.

Why YouTube exists

It's not just for cat videos (although those are mostly also excellent). There is so much cool stuff on YouTube. You just sometimes have to dig for it. This is one of those lovely things.
