A little bit of vintage....


Vertiline in Love will bring a mixture of vintage pieces and a selection of fabulous vintage style, reworked accessories from a variety of designers. 


Love Me Again has everything from vintage nightwear, babycham glasses and knitting patterns to old school satchels, teasets and vintage dressing table sets...and everything in-between. You're sure to find some treasures! 


Excuses, excuses!

Well, apologies for the lack of sneak peeks and meet the maker posts....I got struck down with the Dreaded Cold (which is thankfully almost away in time for the weekend) which left me barely able to move let alone think up questions to email to our exhibitors!

SO. Instead you will just get a barrage of sneak peek images over the next couple of days! Starting NOW!




Alexandra Fiddes, part of the Such & Such collective makes stunning silver jewellery...I am coveting her twig ring .....hint hint Santa Claus!


Little Sister Lucy creates sumptuous, hand-dyed, hand made lingerie and sleepwear from gorgeous silks and Liberty print fabrics. 



Caroline Clougley, another memeber of Such & Such makes beautifully dark & sinister jewellery....


Charlotte Hannett, the third member of Such & Such with yet more fabulous jewellery. 




Opportunity!




We have a little opportunity for a cheerful, friendly, approachable somebody that doesn't mind the wind and possible rain...We're looking for a flyerer or two for this Sunday and also Sunday 12th December for the next Magpie. It's a paid opportunity, and we will also provide tea! 


We'll need you from 11.30 - 4.30 or thereabouts. 


Get in touch magpiemarket(at)gmail(dot)com.

Meet the Makers

Louise Smurthwaite


A favourite of mine, cute repeat prints, innovative use of building blocks & knitted facial hair. I'm not sure you could want much more?




I heart dot dot dot

The lovely Iona makes a variety of things from cross-stitched cards with oh-so-sweet sayings, to headscarves, knitted treats & zines! Lots to look at & lots to buy!
