Craft by the Seaside

Craft by the Seaside

Life at Now, Voyager has been an exciting mix of fairs, festivals & conventions, making our new summer hair accessory collections ‘Picnic’ & 'Aloha' plus launching Now, Voyager hair accessories wholesale in London. Come along with us to reminisce on our recent adventures…Let us begin beside the sea…

We were thrilled when Anna asked us to be part of her very first Leigh-on-Sea craft & vintage fair and super excited to be surrounded by some Now, Voyager friends…Sian’s Sew Swell and double Sue’s Lazy Dazy and Kind Hearts & Coronets. Felicity went crazy for Sew Swell’s adorable appliquéd white ankle socks with lil red roses & white lace detailing. Jess was thrilled that Kind Hearts & Coronets had her coveted princess scrabble letter rings ready to go.

Loads of craft-hungry people flowed through the doors eager for a lil look. Our favourite part was having afternoon tea at our stall, what a treat! Now, Voyager being next to a cupcake stall proved all too tempting and we confess we ate three cakes each…scones, carrot cake & honey bee chocolate cupcakes! You only live once, eh?

The next day, we were lucky enough to be next to Anna at Brentwood’s fabulous Vintage Vogue fair, with Sew Swell and Togged to the Bricks round the corner. A school hall filled with a delicious selection of vintage and a sprinkle of craft for good measure, right on our doorstep. Run by Stephen and Michelle, Michelle also show-cases her amazing knitwear talent.

Jenny, our new Now, Voyager model, came along to lend a much appreciated helping hand. She fell in love with the vintage playsuit stall Beach Bygones and soon we were both oohing and ahhing over its large selection and very affordable prices. Hands down, our favourite stall of the day.

We had the pleasure of meeting Terry of Retro Photostudio who was joined by the lovely model Rayna Terror. You may have noticed this beauty gracing the pages of our lil website.

We had sworn off cake for the day, but Anna soon talked us round. After all, it’s rude to refuse home-made scones!

Craft & Kisses,

Felicity & Jess

Now, Voyager xx
