One very cold Friday me and my mum enjoyed a trip to Saltaire Village and the wonderful Salts Mill. The mill houses one of the largest collection's of David Hockney's art work as well as textile exhibitions, antique shops, beautiful books, crafts, art supplies and Salts Diner (serving beautiful sandwiches and cakes).
The David Hockney (who was Born in Bradford, like myself) collection includes a variety of pieces, paintings, sketches, etchings and photomontages. All great and unique in their own way. But my favourite has to be the photomontage of the Grand Canyon.
I wanted to but everything ,beautiful cards and notes pads with William Morris prints and all the books from the fashion table. The antique shop had some amazing things, vintage cameras and telephones, fur coats, china teapots and even a tea-making machine!
After getting lost among the books and antiques of Salts Mill, Salts Village Bakery provided us with a much needed cup of tea and a gorgeous cream and jam scone.
