Hello, and welcome to another freshly produced post.
Whilst it is a little early for craft events to get going the trade fairs are certainly in full swing and Zalisander’s stall looks amazing at the NEC Spring fair this week
Websites are being updated including our very own Locally Produced for You site with new workshops and classes that have been added so if you are local to Nottingham take a look at what’s coming up. Old Hen’s Nest have also launched their new site. I love Old Hen’s quirky handmade collection especially their idea of turning your child’s hand drawn pictures into a reality of either a cushion or softie.
This lovely commission idea by Nonnyrabbit is also super sweet too
For those who have been watching the Great Interior design show, I hope you enjoyed the final last night ! and if you have been inspired to re decorate your own home this beautiful new design by Little Duck Creations would gorgeous in a nursery or child’s room.
For children a little older you can just have their name and different colour options are available.
For the grown ups why not brighten your reception rooms with a sprinkle of colour and crispness by adding these fantastic glass coasters which are a new design by Number8glass. Have your own ideas for colours then Katherine is more than happy to work to commission.
And sometimes it is just nice to treat yourself
with a beautiful felt bag by Sunflower Design or a gorgeous liberty print scarf by Ginny Rawson Textiles all of which are available to buy from the Locally Produced for You shop
And don’t forget about your loved ones this week
Heart bunting by Nonnyrabbit and personalised card by Clarkie Designs
