This set comprises of a tray, two lidded dishes and two candlesticks in a lovely blue with a floral decoration. Bought at auction for a few pounds last year. Has just come out for a dust off before hopefully selling at the Flea Market day out!

Thank you mustangtony!:)
Can you tell us more about your flea market? Do you have a booth? Big?
AmberRose! You may be able to google the Malvern Flea Market & Collectors Fair at the Three Counties Showground in Worcestershire, England give it a try! It has many large sheds which can take cars, vans etc so undercover no matter what the weather throws at them. (These are usually serious antique dealers) Then there are the outside lot on the parkland with tables and selling from the back of cars, vans etc. That is where I am, no booth, so try to pick good weather! I am just collectables as I have had to try and unload some of the things I have collected over the years and do it mainy for fun and a bit of cash to buy more! (this satisfies my need to buy but does not clog the house up for too long!!!):)
Thank for the Love AmberRose, miKKoChristmas and nldionne!:)
J, I totally understand. I do the same thing. I guess "booth" is not a formal definition here. Could be fancy or tables laid out in a space. If you click on me, you will see my "booth" from a flea I did in November.
I am so over stuffed with goodies that I can't wait for the next one.
Good Luck!

Thank you toolate2 and Manikin for the Love
How did it go?
AmberRose! The Friday night auction was good as usual, bought some kitchenalia in the form of vintage preserving pans, colander, nut Krackers and two pieces of vintage slip ware pottery bowls (will put those on). Some collectable piquot - teapot, coffee pot, sugar basin and milk jug (you can see what that is like on e-bay!) Two Victorian candle holders for the Christmas tree (might show those too). Not starting the Flea Market monthly day out yet as still too cold here, will let you know though when I do one! I am just getting things into boxes and priced up so all that is left is to load up the night before as it is a very early start. The showground is nestled at the base of the Malvern Hills here in England a magnet for walkers and a beautiful place to boot!! Thanks for your interest AmberRose!!:)
Thank you mrmajestic for the Love!
