I'm a big fan of #christmasfairs but a lot of them seem to be of the craft fair variety these days.
Personally, I prefer the ones with an element of table top sale about them because I like ratching through people's unwanted tat. You never know what you might find - one person's rubbish is another's treasure.
Oh, and you must have a raffle, tombola, cake stall, Father Christmas's grotto and the availability of tea and a mince pie.
Evening me dears; please let me know of any Christmas charities or Christmas fairs I can give a boost to on here. Tah.

I thought I would start working through my victorian cheats guides costuming links if anyone has Christmas victorian themed events now is a good time to start on underlayers .but the samle layers will work for Tudor costumes with a bit of adapting to the shape of the skirt https://hathawaysofhaworth.wordpress.com/2012/10/24/how-to-create-a-victorian-outfit-part-one-undies-and-accessories/

Another cheats guide, it can also be adapted to make most other eras or #steampunk #gothic gowns esp the #bustledress versions .The parasol in the back view photo is from a baby buggy .Most of my parasols were ,sewing fringed trim around makes most look authentic and unlike lacy ones they are waterproof.Some like this look ok as they are
