I think the scaled ones look nice. It doesn't particularly say "bazaar"
but it does convey associations of branches, peace, and the kind of
country where you might find a bazaar. (but maybe not peace, hmm...)
Putting small text on the corner could be good.
To improve the outlines it might help to trace it in Inkscape into a
vector image.
