Fash 'n' Treasure Market: Saturday 5th March

Just a reminder about the up and coming Fash 'n' Treasure Market on Saturday 5th March.

This fashion market began in 2010 and is a place where Canberra locals can sell their second-hand clothing, shoes, handbags and accessories.

The market also has a section for professional fashion sellers - they have a range of retro and vintage traders along with local fashion designers, modern retailers, milliners and so on. There will be over 90 fashion traders and it should be a fantastic day with lots of hidden fashion treasures to be found!

2011's first market runs from 10am to 4pm at the Old Bus Depot building in Kingston. There'll be change rooms and a professional DJ for the whole market. Entry to the market and parking is free. More information is available on their website.

A couple of occasional op-shops

While travelling around the Canberra suburbs I have noticed a few churches will be having their "coffee op-shops" or "second hand clothing op-shops" (their words, not mine).

St Ninian's on the corner Mouat and Brigalow Streets in Lyneham will be having a second hand clothing op-shop between 9am and midday on Saturday 6 March.

Also the Anglican Christ Church in Hawker, on the corner of Belconnen Way and Beetaloo street in Hawker will be having a Coffee Op-Shop on Saturday 6 March between 9am and 1pm.

Can any I-opers who go to these sales please find out for us, how often, and when, they have these sales.

Women’s Legal Centre Bags ‘n’ Bling - 6 April 2010

What is Bags ‘n’ Bling:
For those of you who are new to this game, it goes something like this - stylish gals donate handbags and jewellery they don't wear or love anymore to our sale. Then women from all over town come along on the night to grab a bargain from somebody else's clean out.

Donations Needed:
Now is the time to start your early spring cleaning and dig out all those much loved handbags, clutches and satchels as well as any sparkly baubles you don't wear anymore for a great cause.

Drop Donations:
Donations can be dropped off at the Centre, please email or phone for address. 6257 4377, 0404 801 810 or coordinator@womenslegalact.org

Tip:
Start encouraging your friends to donate items you have been admiring in their handbag or jewellery stash so you can buy it for yourself on the night!

All proceeds from the evening go to the WLC to assist us to keep providing a quality legal service to women in the ACT and region.

Thanks for your support.
