I found myself in Pittenweem in Fife on the 1st of August. To celebrate my mums 60th birthday, we all got together to go to the arts festival that was on in the little fishing village of Pittenweem that week.
The weather turned out to be beautiful which made wondering round all the quirky narrow paths and streets between the white washed and multi-coloured cottages and houses much more relaxed.
Quaint is the word a lot of people might associate with the village. Here is a picture of one of the narrow paths and a little house shrounded in vibrant flowers:

We walked in and out of open studios and galleries. Many artists had opened their homes to house their work and allow the public to stroll through, so it was a great opportunity to have a look at the interiors of some traditional style cottages and homes.
I loved the knitted fish down by the pier:

My Dad insisted on having fish and chips from the famous Anstruther fish and chip shop even though we waited an entire hour to get in!! I was so hungry, I didn’t care what I ate:

I liked the detail on this wall of weathered sandstone that has the look of a driftwood window but is infact white tiles:

And these smooth carved wooden ovals with patterns burnt into the wood:

Walking around the village of Anstruther, there were lots of beachy details such as these shells imbedded into walls:

A lot of quirky little creative corners that were not part of the Art show caught my eye.
