Tram at the Ferrymead Night Market
I went to the Ferrymead Night Market tonight – and now that daylight savings is over it is an actual ‘night’ market. The tram was a popular attraction as was all of the food there (oh and beer). I came home with a new poncho and some magnetic clip-on jewellery for a bracelet a bought […]

Ferrymead Night Market
Tonight I went along to the very popular Ferrymead Night Market at the Ferrymead Historic Village. It was a beautiful balmy Autumnal evening and there were lots of things to try and avoid buying. I failed, and came home with new jewellery and a lamp! Such a fun event for everyone – with lots of […]

A day at The Culverden Christmas Country Fete
Today was a beautiful sunny and very warm Canterbury day – perfect weather for the annual Culverden Christmas Country Fete. The Fete has become somewhat of a tradition for many Cantabrians – a great day out of shopping, food and entertainment. Culverden is a lovely little country town in the Hurunui district and about an […]

St Patrick’s Day Themed Market at Sunday Artisan Market, Riccarton House

Shabby Chic
Another very well attended Shabby Chic market. A friend of mine went along for the first time ever and she was gripped with market fever. I talked her out of buying a musical windmill, but talked her into buying the beautiful black and white dress (pictured) that she loves. I was given the pink mustache […]

Anissa Victoria’s Vintage Market
I love markets of any kind – but especially markets with shiny things and pretty stuff like clothes, bags and shoes. So when I heard that Anisa Victoria Loves Vintage was having a market at the Book Fridge Gap Filler site (corner of Kilmore Street and Barbadoes Street) I had to check it out. As […]

Lyttelton Farmers Market on London Street
I’ve been meaning to get along to the Lyttelton Farmers market for a while now – as it has moved to London Street (which is the main street of Lyttelton). It was a beautiful and sunny morning today – and plenty of people were taking the opportunity to buy fresh fruit, vegies, bread and flowers. […]

Shabby Chic-ness on a Hot Cantabrian Day
It got to a high to 26 degrees today – and was very sunny with just a little breeze. Perfect weather to go bargain shopping at the Shabby Chic Market Day. And I sure came home with some bargains. A very cute biscuit tin for 4 dollars, a dress for $5 dollars, a bangle for […]

Shabby Chic Market
A lovely day for a market today. Shabby Chic market is held at Rochester Villa and it’s an extremely popular market. It’s only held on the first Sunday of every month during Spring and Summer. You really need to get there right on 11am to get the best bargains. My home has lots of things […]

There’s a new market started in Heathcote Valley. It’s on every Wednesday 2-5pm at the Cricket Club car park up from the school on Bridle Path Rd. As you can see from the photos, this is a place to tempt you into breaking a diet with tasty treats like Macrons, pastries, curry mince pies, meringues […]

I got along to the Mt Pleasant Farmer’s Market today. Rather a lot of yummy food there to tempt me, but I came back with a lettuce!
