Rosnaree Vintage Fair

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 

The Brown Hound Bakery 

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
