What a beautiful day, well it certainly is here!
Today saw the family and I, visiting Macclesfield, for the most wonderful Treacle Market.
This market, in my eyes, is a real cut above the rest.
I love the fact that it has Vintage, top quality crafts plus great street food.
I bought home a delicious red berry cheesecake and I may have eaten a few other treats whilst a pottling.

Not wanting to be too snap happy, and the fact that it is so busy it is sometimes a bit tricky getting up close to the stalls, I have just taken a few snaps of my favourite things.
I hope you like what I liked and then I will show you what I bought and something that was bought for me.
Superb tweed animal heads by Tweed Queen |
my fave stall, the very quirky Shabby Cheek |
more Shabby Cheek |
great original vintage prints by Sherratt and Reece |
retro goodies from Smashing Time |
cute little dolls by Freddy and Violet |
I am definitely going to treat myself to one of these by Tweed Queen |
Worth a visit in the furure?
If you can, do.
I am definitely going to make it a regular thing. Great for the Mr's too with all the food ;-)
So, let me show you what I bought
one of the Sherrat and Reece prints, a gorgeous piece of fabric purchased at Smashing Times ,just perfect for cushions and the most lovely Homepride tin which I have been coveting for quite some time. |
the in-laws treated me to this gorgeous jug |
and they bought over this bike which I am head over heels in love with goodness I am such a lucky duck! |
of TV.
I hope you have had a most lovely weekend, maybe found time for a bit of market mooching.
Thanks for reading. x
btw, I will be announcing the winner of the giveaway tomorrow!
I had that bike! My mum had one in that colour and I had the cream one! Brings back memories x
ReplyDeleteI am going for a spin on my new bike tomorrow.

I like the sound of the bike in cream, how lovely.
