Hello everyone, it is such a pleasure to be here again with you all to share an amazing part of Australia in the magical #MarketFriday community.
With a huge thanks to @dswigle for hosting this great community for us to share the sights and wares of our homes, I know that you're going to love this place! 😃
For the second part of my adventure through Market Friday on the Far South Coast of NSW, we will finally arrive at the land of wonder (after buying all of that amazing handcrafted furniture on the way...😃..) through the glorious glass door to meet the lovely Pam, who shares her love of the local community with us.
The Bega Valley Market Place In Rixon’s Arcade Bega is just like Aladdin’s Cave, it’s full of little treasures – the more you look the more you’ll find. https://www.2ec.com.au/business/the-bega-valley-indoor-market-place/
And if you missed the start of the magical tour part #1, then please just click on this link to start the tour here @chocolatescorpi/a-very-tasty-friday-market
These are pamphlets advertising a huge range of things to do around the entire area, such as whale watching in Eden, surfing at Tathra Beach, a cultural walk through indigenous Panboola, Oyster tours a Wonboyn Lake and so many other awesome activities in this gorgeous area.
And then what can I say.
I think that the following images speak for themselves.
The Bega Valley market place is a NON-PROFIT COLLECTIVE, so therefore, Pam and her team do not make any profits, therefore do not exploit any of the craftspeople, but instead support them in every way.
As a collective, each stall in the indoor market is held by a different creator and as such, each stall is completely different, as each item is completely unique.
All items are handcrafted by extremely talented people that have made their home in the valley.
Whether they come from a long line of locals, or whether that are new to the area, either way, the products that they make by hand are made with love.
And there is something in there to suit absolutely everyone too. Even your best friends!
There's something old and something new here too.
Some fabulous second hand goods- upcycled, as well as some vintage and antique goodies too!
From handmade gloves, scarves, soaps and shoes, honey, sauces, Jams, preserves, chutneys and marinades too, cards, books, buttons, bowls, bibs, bags, brushes, broaches, earrings and oils, puzzles, pillows, magnets and mittens,
There is something special in here for all.
So please don't rush, take your time to savour all these goodies and don't forget to check out their fb page too! https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063791211988
Enjoy your tour and I hope that you will visit the The Bega Valley Market Place INfact, if you head on over to their FB page, you can give PAm and the team and all of the creators some love yourself by liking their page, sending them a message or by giving them a wave from where ever you are in the world! https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063791211988
How awesome would that be- For Pam and the creators to know that she has fans from all over the world (and what a great way to promote our warm, wonderful and caring HIVE family to this little village too! 😃
Can you believe that all of this amazing, homemade, handcrafted stuff is in one indoor market!
I love this place so much!
And I love the fact that everything in there is handmade, and each piece will have it's own tiny, little flaw, unlike everything that is perfectly made by robots, or slave labour in a factory- which makes that product, literally one-of-a-kind!
Not only that, but I am supporting the locally community and this one has been blasted by both mindblowing bushfires and floods in the last couple of years!
Thanks so much Pam for the wonderful conversations and your amazing knowledge of all the amazing products and their talented creators!
Much love to your beautiful, four legged furry helper Holly too!
Such a shame I didn't get a photo of her helping you! 😞
But for those of you who love animals, here's the gorgeous girl on her 9th birthday on the 13th August https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=5783118638385882&set=pcb.5783120158385730
I am so happy with my new earrings, rings, sauces, preserves and jams and perfumed oils that I bought there and I hope that you also click on this link to see what you might like to buy for your mum, your daughter, sister or even your dog https://www.facebook.com/100063791211988/shop/?ref_code=mini_shop_profile_plus_shop_tab_cta&ref_surface=profile
