Arthur's Circus

delay in posting

The bath photo has absolutely nothing to do with anything, but it was to do with a lovely person who organised a wee photo expedition for myself and Nick…and speaking of expeditions we’re taking a break from the internet (not that we’ve been here much of recent) so our webshop
will not be shipping orders until the end of September. See you on the sunnier side of winter/spring… See our shipping page for more info.

camberwell market

This weekend sees us having a stall at Camberwell Market. I do wonder where on earth time disappears to. 3 months ago I booked the stall and now this week sees us putting together a random array of stuff to take. We’re stall 214 which is near where the Salvation Army band play I think. I’m definitely not looking forward to the 5am torch brigade, so fingers crossed it’s not raining as well.

new cushions

arthurscircus — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 07:22:54 +0000

I have finally found time to make a few more flour / feed / sugar / potato sack cushions. You can find them in the decor section of the website. And in other news we have decided to no longer open our shop front in North Melbourne at regular times. We will be open for appointments only, so please call us if you’re planning a visit. We will still be around the neighbourhood.

cleaning out

arthurscircus — Mon, 31 May 2010 10:23:49 +0000

the time has come for us to let go of a few items that we love but can’t seem to find the time to restore or repaint etc ourselves. We’ve got this beautiful kitchen cabinet for sale over at ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320540768598&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_548wt_1154 I’m not too sure how to link things here so if you’re interested you may have to cut and paste or seek out. There’s also a vintage industrial hospital side cabinet and an old radio transmittor. Good stuff indeed.

take a seat

We have a few of these lovely vintage children’s kinder chairs now in the shop for sale. I am yet to figure out how to post them, so if you are outside of Melbourne and are unable to pick up please let us know. They are $25 each. Phone 0408557459 or 0412713202.

I like cookie jars

arthurscircus — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 22:08:38 +0000

I collect cookie jars and here is my latest find…..in other shop related talk, we are taking the circus to the Fitzroy Market once again this weekend, which means that our real world shop will be closed this coming Saturday 30/4. Please call 0412713202 to arrange an alternative time or come and find us in the car boot section at Fitzroy Primary School from 10am – 2pm.

off to market

arthurscircus — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 22:02:18 +0000

this weekend sees us having a stall at the Fitzroy Market http://fitzroymarket.com/
on Saturday at the Fitzroy Primary School and the Thread Den North Melbourne Market http://www.northmelbournemarket.com/
on Sunday at the Lithuania Club. Both markets open at 10am. Our shop will be closed whilst we are elsewhere. I would have posted this earlier but our internet decided to go awol for a few days. I’ve also misplaced my mobile so please call 0412713202 for any enquiries.

uploading

arthurscircus — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 10:41:07 +0000

I have been photographing and adding new things online today and still yet to add many more. The photographing bit is fun, the uploading urrghh much time required… Also a new shipment of Keep Calm and Carry On screenprints have arrived today from the UK, along with a few other of their screenprint and tea towel designs…adding them online now.

hmmm…

arthurscircus — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 05:10:50 +0000

testing and figuring out our new website with it’s own news/blog section. It surely can’t be hard…I have added 2 new Paumes books now available online and they are my new favourites. Also we are taking a wee break over Easter. The shop will be open tomorrow only 10am – 12pm and then closed for the Easter weekend. Oh and the photo is a random one from our home…

New Website!

If you are reading this, then the big news is that our new website is up and running. (Thanks Skye) So hello and welcome you are now able to shop directly from here, which means our bigcartel site will soon be no longer. Our aim is to find and upload great new items every week. So please come back often.
