Yesterday we had a fabulous day out at
The Rosnaree Vintage Fair In Slane co Meath
Many Country Houses attempt different this kind of event
Some are more successful than others
Rosnaree hit the nail on the head
This was a great family day out
Admission was reasonable €10 for a family
Food was great
There was wood oven pizza
and the most incredible spread from
It is definitely on my To Do list to pay them a visit in Drogheda
Baxter You are coming home with ME!
As well as great food, there were lots of activities for the kids
Piles of Hay to throw about (a simple but genius idea that the kids loved)
and
A gypsy caravan
Shetland Pony rides
Pony and Trap rides
So the kids were busy while Mum looked at
fantastic vintage clothing
and it must be noted that this really was VINTAGE
NOT a bring and buy sale and NOT new and NOT rubbish
A friend nabbed an incredible silk printed Jean Muir dress
for €70
there were also great paintings, furniture, china
This Victorian tea set really pulled at my purse strings
I loved this guy who greeted us on the way in to the house
I also met many, many old friends
Including the Indomitable Emily from Loughcrew
If you haven't been to the Loughcrew Opera
It is on this July 20th and 21st
I highly recommend it
a great evening out !
Also ran into Petria from Dolls (one of my favourite Dublin shops and cafes)
Petria (left) and friend looking incredibly dapper
and I had serious Wisteria envy
It's becoming a problem
Horticulturalenvyitis
is I think the Latin name
I purchased this adorable shirt for my smallest of men
when we arrived home the same little man ate 2 boiled eggs in a row with his new friend
...... he has Never eaten a boiled egg before !
vintage egg cup €2
So well done Rosnaree !
All in all a perfect day out
well planned and reasonably priced
I look forward to next year
