Screen Printing!













So these are our screenprints that we did onto jersey tops that we had made the day before! Here it shows the stages we went through to make the stencil and the different stages of printing! It was a fun but long day of waiting for things to dry, doing it wrong, doing it again and then more waiting! But overall we were really happy with what we produced and as you can see in the earlier post, they looked great on our stall. So tempting to steal one for ourselves....

Manchester Town Hall










These are a few pics of our fair we did with Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair on Sunday. It was a long day , we were there till 8 so plenty of buyers! The German market was on outside and it was one of those cosy days where we were glad to be inside on a wintery November sunday! Apart from the fact that we had to listen to the Madonna greatest hits for over 8 hours, we had a fun day selling our newly screen printed t-shirts. Loads of interest which was great and as you can see they look amazing!

So at our Leeds Corn Exchange fair on Saturday we had our photo taken by WildChild Media, they were taking street style photographs for promotion. They also took photos of all the other stallholders but thought i would post this so you know who we are! Lucie on the right and Grace on the left. Go the thriftettes!

MADE by the thriftettes


















So here is a peek at our new range 'MADE by the thriftettes'

We already had a few pieces on our stall at Leeds Corn Exchange and they sold really well, then we met Lily Vintage at the New Cavern Emporium in Manchester and she is setting up shop and asked if we wanted to sell there too! So we have been busy all day making up these beauties! They will be for sale at our fairs over the next couple of months as well so watch out!

Leeds Corn Exchange Fair ROUND 2!











We had a great time at Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair at the Corn Exchange in Leeds yesterday, here are a few photos of our beautiful stock. So much lovely stuff went yesterday including a lot of our hand made stuff which was great. We also sold the high waisted denim shorts with gingham and lace detail, lucky customers! All the stall holders were really friendly and we were next to a couple selling handmade jewellery so will post about their beautiful stock soon! Our next fair is on 20th November in Manchester Town Hall, next to the German Market, so wrap up warm and come and find us, for treats and discounts!
