Christmas at the Market...it's a gift!

I am always amazed when walking around Cardiff Indoor Flea Market at just what fabulous merchandise there is available. The Christmas and craft fair showed that there was plenty of variety and some of that stock has found its way into the market itself and is available on various stalls so it is worth coming down for a good explore.

There’s loads of inspiration all around the market, and loads of bargains as well. From pre-loved items of all sizes to original hand crafted gifts; there really is no reason not to find all your Christmas gifts in this one enormous space. Certainly beats the ‘bunfight’ of shopping in town and should keep the family happy as well!

So, how about some gift ideas?

Well, there’s far too much to mention but how about:
