We had a great day at the made-it Craft Fair in Weatherby Town Hall. Laura wasn't able to get up to Yorkshire today but she was definitely there in spirit. Mark Griffiths kindly came along to give me a hand and we are very grateful for his help. The visitors to the fair really loved Laura's Fascinators and Tie Bags and we made some good sales of those and my bowls.

We launched a new product for Christmas which we will have up on the Etsy and Folksy shops very soon (well as soon as I have replenished my stock!). The new bowls are small paper clay bowls which are designed to hang on the Christmas tree as decorations which can also hold little gifts! Look out for them, the people at the Fair seemed very pleased with them and we hope you will be too.

There were some brilliant exhibitors there with some beautiful and innovative handmade products for sale. We especially liked Skiprat Creations who make original, contemporary furniture and gifts handcrafted in Yorkshire from reclaimed or recycled materials and recommend that you take a look at their shop on Folksy. You will not be disappointed.
Our stall was next to an excellent and very creative photographer, Brian Hull who combines his love of history with a very professional and creative approach to the images he captures, so definitely check his web site Quadriform out.
Finally we would really like to thank Debbie and Kirsten who organised the craft fair for inviting us to join this one, it was a really valuable and very enjoyable experience. They are holding several more made-it Craft Fairs leading up to Christmas and you can see the details at their website.
