We are handmade Christmas Craft Fair & demonstrations at Long Melford, 21st November

The we are handmade craft & design fairs return to The Old School, Long Melford, Suffolk on Saturday 21st November from 10am – 4pm for a Christmas Fair packed full of beautiful handmade crafts.

Featuring over 35 craft makers and artists the Fair includes local artist and weaver, Katie Green; Capricorn Crafts, makers of wooden toys & gifts; Nanuk Jewellery;  The Elvish Tailor; Glass ‘n’ Gems and Honeybee Natural Beauty.

This event is an ideal place to find unique Christmas gifts and chat with stallholders, as many makers undertake commissions, do restorative work and run workshops or courses in their specialist area. There will be a wide range of contemporary and vintage inspired handmade crafts to buy including jewellery, cards, toys, glass decorations, pottery, clothes, bags, paintings and a range of items for the home and garden.

Visitors can also see demonstrations from stallholders such as Norah Stocker from Fantasia Textiles, who will be showcasing various techniques using textiles. Norah runs a range of workshops and classes from her Coggeshall studio, including City & Guilds courses. Toni Peers of Curly-Girly Crafts will also be on hand to show visitors how to create wonderful images using molten wax (encaustic art). You can also see artist Julia Tanner painting at her stall.

Entrance to the Fair is free. Plum Fairy will be running the Tearoom so they’ll be the opportunity for delicious tea and cake, all served on lovely vintage crockery.

A full list of makers will be on www.wearehandmade.co.uk a few weeks before the Fair.
