Detola And Geek On the Road: Susie's Vintage & Handmade Pop Up Fair Feb 2016
A couple of Sundays ago, I attended my first handmade fair for 2016.
A totally new handmade fair for me, as well as venue, and I can't sing their praises enough. I am quite selective at which fairs I attend as some of them are not always cracked up to be all that (if you know what I mean)!
It was organised by Susie of Susie's Vintage Warehouse (which is based in Halls Green, Hertfordshire).
The venue itself - Nobel School, Stevenage - was just the right venue. Ample parking, very helpful & accommodating host, fab variety of stall holders & loads of footfall. It was also well publicised. Now that is how to pull off a "handmade & vintage fair"
An you will be please to know that I will be attending the next one. For all the details please click the link >>>>>>>>>>>>> Detola & Geek on Facebook
Detola and Geek is really looking forward to the next on in April. Can't wait.

Susie's Vintage and Handmade Pop Up on Sunday 7th Feb 2016
Just a quick share of Detola and Geek's first handmade fair for the New Year 2016
And it's gonna be fab.
And it's gonna be fab.
This will be my first time selling, in person, at this Hertfordshire Pop Up Fair, hosted by Susie's Vintage Warehouse, so fingers crossed and all ;-). Really looking forward to it.
It is being held in a high school hall so there will be loads of other stall holders there too selling both vintage and handmade products.
To find out more & have a feel of the other small businesses taking part, hop on over to Susie's Pop Up Fair on Facebook!
