Fair at Battle Hill



A few weeks ago we dropped by a delightful craft and food fair at Battle Hill Farm Park, just outside of 
Wellington. 


 The weather gods were with us and I loved the country atmosphere.




 Many of the crafts people also sell on Felt , a Kiwi on line marketplace for hand crafted goods. It's worth taking a look at this site.



 There were lots of activities for kids, including a tour of the air rescue helicopter.....don't you love the sheep in the background?This is, after all, New Zealand.



I succumbed to temptation and treated myself to a  brooch from Smash Palace, who make  jewelry from recycled old china, my second love next to fabric.
