Kensington Fair, London

I arrived back from my trip to London yesterday.   What a great time we had.    The trip was a present from my sister and included all the usual sightseeing trips, a night at the theatre to see Les Miserables and a visit to the Kensington Dolls House Fair.

This was a first for me and it was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.   Lots of lovely exhibitors with lots of lovely minis to view.

Firstly, the big stuff:  flooring - Susan Bembridge;   ceiling rose - Jennifers of Walsall;    dumb waiter - Masters Miniatures;   skirting - Wood Supplies;   cherry pie preparation and screen (sorry, can't remember the sellers of those two items)

Secondly, the wee stuff (and I've named the seller where possible):  naïve prints and chamber pot;  store cupboard essentials;  Thomas Crapper toilet rolls - Valerie Claire Miniatures;   newspapers - Aidan Campbell;   wine carafe - Gerd Felka;  wine glasses and soda syphon - Glasscraft;   half a dozen eggs, sliced bread with knife;   servant's bell pulls - Jennifers of Walsall;   lady's tortoiseshell dressing table set and light bulb - Truly Scrumptious.

 

This last item was a gift from my sister and they are destined for another property.   Two pigeons - David Ward.

 

 

There were one or two items from the list that I didn't manage to get but as I didn't spend all the budget I can now have an online spree!
