SUNDAY MARCH 24TH, 2013

_{MISS JOHNSON’S VINTAGE AND HANDMADE MARKET}

_{is calling for an expression of interest}

Guildford Heritage Festival have approached us to become part of their festival which is being held 

on Sunday March 24th, 2013 and we are very keen to join them.  An area in Stirling square would 

be sectioned off for Miss Johnson’s Vintage and Handmade market.  Their guide lines  are very 

strict  that all products must be vintage or handmade using vintage.  And if we wish to join them 

we must follow their wishes.  Another request is that we do not a lot of same product stalls ie 

vintage clothing or jewellery.  We have photo’s of what we envisage Miss Johnson’s will look 

like,  you can have a lot of fun using frames of tents, porta shades or market umbrella’s. 

 For those interested in joining us we will have a meeting at Stirk Park with the organiser of 

Guildford Heritage Festival, Phillipa and myself with a demonstration on how you can decorate 

your shelter.  We would  advise you to have some shelter as it is extremely hot at this time of year

 and although there are trees in the area we are allocated, they do not shade the area until very late 

in the day.  The festival is between 10 am and 4pm which would be about time there would not be

 any shade. As you can see from the photo’s that the look of products spilling out looks very inviting 

to the public.  We would like to stand out as uniquely different to the other craft tents in the park. 

 By joining Guildford Heritage Festival we would benefit by their extensive advertising in all 

media’s including radio interviews with 6PR and others.  We would also be covered by their

 Public Liability cover for the event.  This would not cover you as an exhibitor for your products etc. 

We are very excited about this opportunity and as we do not have to pay for the hire of the hall 

and advertising, the charge for being part of Miss Johnson’s would be $50,  for our part we will 

be participating in the advertising and organising and decorating the area Miss Johnson’s Vintage 

and Handmade market in the style you now know from past events.

Knowing what creative girls you are, we think you are quite capable of being part of this event.  

Please contact us as soon as possible so you don’t miss out, we will need about 20 stall holders and 

we will be looking for more  after contacting you, also if you know of anyone suitable please do 

not hesitate to give them our details.

.  Can you visualize how this section of Stirk park that has been allocated to Miss Johnson’s will look with 
white bunting, floating angel wings as well as beautifully decorated tents similar to the tents above, won’t 
it be exciting to be part of this.

We have a prime spot under these beautiful trees on the corner in the background is the roundabout heading 
across the bridge leading into the popular Swan Valley, very visual and we will have banners etc well 
visible from these roads.

We have already received applications from very creative people and are looking for just

a few more, so come join us, you will have a lot of fun and this is something we

want to build on.

 The above photo's where taken at a market Phil and I did last year in Caningvale where we started decorating our tents.  We will look much better in the park.  Just to give you an idea.

28th and 29th October 2011

Sorry I haven't been able to update you on our market coming up on next Friday night 28th and Saturday 29th October. While Phil was in India her online service went down and i was unable to access the blog. However here I am now. Above is Phil and I in our witches hats that Phil made.

Above are some new products I will have on my table, I will also have a new range of magazines Somerset Studio's and the beautiful Jeanne d'arc Living. There are new exhibitors as well as your usual favourites. And of course the wonderful home cooked coffee, cake and sandwiches.

We are very pleased to have a lovely lady all the way from Mt Barker who makes and sells the most incredible florentines, flavours like Tropical, Pina Colado, Jamaica Dream are only 3 of 10 different flavours, treat yourself and these will make wonderful christmas gifts if you can hold onto them that long before temptation overtakes you

Not the best copy but don't they look just mouth watering mmmmh.

While you are in Guildford attending our market why not take the time to visit a few of the local shops who are very supportive. Just along the road in James Street is the beautiful Storia.

I couldn't resist this lovely little porcelain star for Christmas from Storia.

And from Panache around opposite the Rose and Crown hotel I bought three of these butterflies on clips to go on a white tree, now you know how i love white.white

and several more shops on James street well worth looking into.

And somewhere to eat, you can spoil yourself at Jezebelle's, what an opulent restaurant, the serve Australian style tapa's, great to share with a friend.

Something more down to earth, on Friday night across the road is the well known Alberts great for Hamburgers, so something to suit all and you will find several more down the street.

Look forward to seeing you all

Jacky and Phillipa in our witches hats
