Meimarkt down town Tilburg 22 - 05 - 2011

Once a year we have as you in the States call it a garage sale, but it is downtown and there are about 630 people with a market stall and 200 place on the ground. The event starts on Saturday evening 9 o'clock and it goes on the whole night and ends on Sunday at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. On Sunday the children till 12 year     are allowed to ask for a place on a square, THE SQUARE downtown. Other years I wasn't there but this year living downtown now I couldn't resist to visit the market. I didn't take much money with me. All that you see in the picture (Pam Freck you should close your eyes and not look at the picture) I bought that for just 

€ 10, 20  That is about $14,00 . What do you see, well a lot of jewelery I bought them for the beads not to ware them. than some small statues, don't look Pam, a donkey for Nora a metal cat to make cakes. A book to make special clothes for dolls, a picture of angels I told you I thought about a poem that is talking of 14 angels that goes with you when you go to sleep. I had a picture but it brook and there is a lady bird made of a balloon I bought some small balloons and hope I can make them myself  There is also a small doily It is a nice piece of lace It is knitted and crotchet . I put it on the scanner and here is a picture of that piece of lace   

If you want to see it better to look for what  is done click on it and it becomes bigger I don't know who made it and if there is a pattern Just found it and payed 10 euro cents. Of course I looked for tatting, but didn't find anything. I think I have to go earlier in the morning or maybe in the night. I know that people who are looking for special things do that.But I have had a lot of fun and I think I found a lot of treasures. Next year I will go again. Now I have to gave my feet a big rest. I was walking for about 4 till 5 hours.
