Vietnamese Hand made craft stand at Bury Market

[Graham Orm]

All photo's taken with the stall holders permission. A Vietnamese lady who imports all the stuff shown. I know it's not technically breathtaking, but a lot of effort that has gone into some of it, bearing in mind the prices it sells for (or maybe doesn't).
I also thought it may help answer a previous thread on what to make for Xmas fairs. This lady's website is http://www.kimparo.com

There are some good ideas there. Though the sailing galleons for £5.99 make it a bit difficult to compete

I can see a few breaches of copyright there. Shame the market organiser have allowed them to sell them there. If Disney find out the business owner will find herself in court pretty quickly!

Did you buy hot potatoes from the hot potato man while you where there? That's a Bury tradition for us.

Although I generally despise football, the colour and grain pattern on the wooden one make it rather attractive.

No but we got black pudding and tripe! I used to go every Saturday with my mum when I was a kid to do the weekly shop. It's changed a lot since then. Disappointed to find only one tool stall with a very poor selection and nothing second hand. Good day out though. We bought a latte each at one of the little cafe's and the girl came back after delivering the drinks with a fancy biscuit and said "Eeeyar, that cums with yer latte". Very cosmopolitain :lol: :lol: :lol:
