Finders Keepers Markets Brisbane

How wonderful is my city! Well I think so. Brisbane is really coming alive. Or maybe it could just be that I am finally emerging from the cloud of 'young children motherhood' and into 'real life' again.

Being a teenage bride and mother has its joys and sacrifices. On one hand it is fantastic to be so young now with these fantastic and active children. On the other hand I never really got any adult life in Brisbane.

I AM MAKING UP FOR IT NOW!

Being in my 30s has been the best time in my life.
I have got through the baby making time and happy that I never have to give up soft cheese again.
Worked hard to achieve a good solid CBD job with fantastic conditions and a wonderful boss .
I know my sense of style and fashion. (yeah, it's not groundbreaking, but it's me)
I feel confident but not cocky.
I have good friends, but don't need to spend all my time with them.
My sisters are adults now (I am the eldest) and we swan about a lot. 
I dont have to drink beer with cordial shots on Friday nights because I can afford good wine and even cocktails if I want to. 
For all the tears I shed in my 20s there has been so much joy so far in my 30s.
Best of all, I like my own company. I am happy to date myself at least once a week. I take myself out alone or get 'the man' to take them out for a few hours.

Anyway, too many words.. lets get to the Markets.

It was held in the Old Museum. What a beautiful old building.


Brisbane's Old Museum

What a beautiful building. I would love a wedding here. Carrie, SATC style!
Inside the first hall. POM POMS!

Bespoke Letterpress Boutique BLOG and WEB
The most beautiful stall at the market.
They have bookplates, gift tags, limited edition wall prints, cards, invitations. I LOVE it all.

Another lovely stall. The London Club
I am in love with their totes and little tea cup pot plants for herbs.

Look at these! Golden Books recycled into diaries!

Kewpie Dolls. Not for sale :(

Out in the garden, live music, smooth coffee and cold drinks.

I am falling more in love with Brisbane each weekend!
