On the work bench today

Not everything Vintage Magpie creates works...I'm unsure whether this will, and I'm not happy enough to post final photos yet....

It involves lots of felt and pins and patience....which I have lots of....Thankfully! ;)

I hope I can post you the photos soon xxx

The Nest

Well here she is.... The Nest.... Vintage Magpie's first ever workshop!!




I couldn't believe my luck when I got to The Needlemakers this morning. I walked into my nest, and was hit by the most glorious morning sunshine. She has the most sparkling light... add in some Vintage Magpie sparkle and rainbows of light were dancing across the walls and floor... I took this to be a good omen!

An old child's chair is a great display. An old discoloured butter dish to hold my business cards.

Every girl needs to Wish....

The fabulous light, jars of buttons, and an old shoe shop mirror.

My huge worktable... Thanks to a thrifty Grandfather...Vintage Magpie has never had so much space!

I have to admit that I have had a few doubtful thoughts... Is it going to work? Will people come to see me? Am I doing the right thing, at the right time?

Then I just remember that life is not for the faint hearted....follow your bliss girl.... be strong... What's the worst that can happen?

So Vintage Magpie has taken another step into the unknown... And I'm going to enjoy the ride!!

Saturday the 4th April is the grand opening... come and enjoy a cupcake or three... wear something sparkly... you will shine like a star! xxx
