25/10/2014 0 Comments Vintage DesignOur October meeting had a definite vintage feel as we welcomed Suzanne Curtis to talk to us about her business venture as Belle & Olive involving lots of hand-made lovely things. After giving us a potted history of her conventional career she explained how she bravely made the leap into the uncertain world of self-employment with her craft & vintage up-cycling business. She had brought along a selection of her craft items which ranged from decorated boxes and jars to jewellery and from soft toy animals to wooden letter blocks. She admitted that her personal favourites are the wide range of brooches she makes using felt, fabric, buttons and beads. After the talk we checked out the stall and took the chance to purchase a few early Christmas presents and no doubt a few personal treats as well. Afterwards we held a promises auction which raised around £20 for BVWI funds - thanks to all those who offered their skills and time and all those who bid for them. Check out the photos in our gallery.
