The Fluffy Slug at the Country Living Fair

This was to be my second visit to the Country Living Fair with The Fluffy Slug, having launched there last year but due to illness I was unable to attend in person.  My kind hubby and friends, Mishelle, Lesley and Marion attended for me.  I managed to get there and set up the stall but then had to come home, more than disappointed that I had to miss meeting the visitors to my stall and the other stall holders but also buying all the gorgeous goodies on sale at the Fair, especially the lovely handmade items. I did manage to buy something from The Sea Garden as Christine and her Mum was setting up as she was just a few stalls away - a tiny vintage box of teeny weeny sea shells collected from the Cornish coast and this now sits on my sun room window sill.
Here are just a few piccies of my stall and items that were on sale.

  1. I love the little shell box - it reminds me of one I used to have when I was younger. It came from the Isle of Wight and had tiny, pretty shells and the coloured sand that came from the local cliffs at Alum Bay......happy childhood memories - thank you.
