The Vintage Collective Markets.

The Vintage Collective Markets

 

The weather was overcast, rain cascaded from the heavens and the wind blew. Overlooking the fact, that spending time at an outdoor vintage market may not be a good idea. My friend and I braved nature's beauty and were very that pleased we did.

Situated within the grounds of the Oakover Winery in Middle Swan, The Vintage Collective Markets had entertainment, food and vintage treasures. 

A few treasures were purchased by the lovely Tony from Vintage Chloe and myself.

I scored this fabulous vintage concave star shaped mirror for $30 from a lovely lady at the fair. 

I do love abstract patterned bark cloth fabric, and needed new cushion covers. So two boxes were ticked with these three vintage cushion covers. This period of vintage barkcloth textile design is getting harder to find within the local second hand stores.

 I do recommend that you check out The Vintage Collective Market's page for their scheduled upcoming events. That is if you live in Perth, Western Australia I guess!

2015 Design

We,at Vintage Space headquarters, are very pleased with our 2015, flyer and swing tag design. 

 Designed by myself, Bernadette. Printed by Clone Army Print.
 
 Specifically designed for our new shop space at MANY 6160. The swing tags are made from reclaimed card that was ready for the dumpster.

The girl archer image was taken from an American 1940's calendar, 'Miss December'. I thought it apt to use her as I, myself am a Sagittarian. My legs are not as long and as sexy as Miss December's though!

A Brief Affair

Today, I part ways with these 1970's, brand new, old stock ladies novelty stretch nylon briefs!

Vintage Dining

Today we had a sad farewell to our bright kitchen dining table. Unfortunately, we had grown too big for our bright green 1970s dining companion. Many a happy memory was had at this table.

1970s kichen table and Sebel chairs

 I do love this bold colour combination. The 1970s Sebel tulip chairs will still have a place within our home until our Hans Wegner original wishbone chairs have been restored. We are currently replacing our laminated vintage furniture with quality vintage wooden furniture.

 Here is a close up of the fabulous hardwood detail underneath the table. The metal hardware is uniform, so I assume the whole table construction happened at one time.

1970s kitchen table

I am sure the new owner of this 1970s table will be just as happy as we were.
