Valentine

A quiet and enjoyable Valentine's week at Cow & Ghost.

We've both been off and enjoyed the time wandering various places sourcing stock for upcoming events. 

Sewing machine has been busy. As it's Valentine's week have been working with a red tapestry.

Also been working on something new.

Have wanted to make a soft toy for a while. Created our own cat design in the style of many vintage 2D toys we have seen over the years. Thinking of making a dog too.....

These and lots of other things will be coming to our next fair. Really looking forward to being back at Brecon for the Artisan Market which is part of Brecon Women's Festival.

Hope to see you there.

'January, February', by us, not Barbara Dickson.

A very belated Happy New Year from Cow & Ghost.

Where did January go???

Time seems to have flown by. 

Great start to the new year with the first of the Derwen Antique Fairs at the National Botanic Gardens of Wales. This event is always great fun from start to finish and the setting is fabulous.

As usual we were pitched in the marquee.

Amazing flow of people. Rain didn't stop play. Huge thank you to everyone who braved the elements and came to the event. Already looking forward to the next one - April 7th & 8th.

Starting to collect new items of stock. Particularly thrilled with this little table. Love items with 'dansette' legs.

The next event we're standing at is the Artisan Market in Brecon in early March. The market is part of Brecon Womens Festival. Hugely enjoyable last year and well worth a visit.

We use this event to showcase the items we make from damaged vintage Welsh blankets. Lots of new stock already lined up and lots of projects planned.

Happy February.
