Happy Ending.

We do like a Welsh wool blanket at Cow & Ghost. These are just three of the ones we took to Carmarthen on Saturday. We sold the middle and right hand ones to two lovely ladies who were both very pleased.

Delighted to get an email and photo today showing one of the blankets in its new home. It looks superb. Lovely to see where something ends up.

Carmarthen Fayre.

Brilliant day Saturday May 6th at the Vintage Fayre in St Peter's Hall, Carmarthen. Very busy. Met  a lot of lovely people and caught up with several old friends - 

3 quite out of the blue.

Huge success for Cow & Ghost, so we've booked the next one for 

July 4th.

Post Hay Festival

Busy and rewarding week at the Hay On Wye Literary Festival. The shop looked amazing and the tearoom was a roaring success to say the least. So lucky with the weather this year too. Sun shone almost every day. Sadly June hasn't started as well.

Can't win 'em all........

The courtyard 'Secret Garden' tea room was the perfect setting to relax with a cream tea.

Lots of lovely things sold from our unit. Busy stocking up, as we have several fairs coming up. Great excuse to go shopping.

To sum up. Cow & Ghost has a very enjoyable week, and are looking forward to the summer in Paraphernalia, 7 Market Street, Hay On Wye.

At the Hay Festival

We spent a lovely day wandering around the Hay On Wye Literary festival yesterday.

Our stall at Paraphernalia is stocked up with lots of lovely things. Really enjoyed meeting and chatting to customers.

The shop is on Market Street near the Antique Centre and Butter Market. Lots of nice things outside as well as in.

Wonderful atmosphere in town. Everywhere you look there is something to see, Stalls, crafts, music, vintage. It goes on and on.

And the sun is shining.

Don't forget. When you need a break to recharge, the tea room at Paraphernalia is open. Wonderful selection of home made cakes and snacks, and the calm of the private courtyard garden setting.

Hay Festival Begins

The Hay On Wye Literary Festival has started. The weather forecast is very promising. As well as the huge variety of fascinating events on the main site, the town is geared up too.

So many lovely shops to explore.

We're all geared up at 'Paraphernalia'. Cow & Ghost have our unit packed with lovely things. The rest of the shop is also looking amazing, so there's something for everyone. The tea room is now open, so somewhere very nice to rest your feet and refresh with a beverage and home made cake while you ponder which lovely item to purchase.

Please come along and say hello.

Hay On Wye Festival 2015

Cow and Ghost have had a lovely weekend. We've enjoyed the sunny delights of Kew Gardens. Highly recommended by the way.

Back home now, and the build up for the Hay On Wye festival begins.

It's a superb and unique event that is well worth visiting.

Huge selection of events on the festival site. 

The town has a great selection of lovely shops. We'' be there in Paraphernalia, No7 Market Street. 

Lots of lovely items in our unit and the rest of the shop. Also a pop up tea room I can highly recommend.
