A Trip Out To Derbyshire....

Almost 2 weeks since I updated my blog.... oops. Here I am though, saying hello and putting my feet up after a day at the Craft and Jewellery Fair at Buxton Pavillion. This is a great venue, especially on a sunny autumn day. Beautiful gardens and lots of lovely crafts, what more could you want?

Victoria Garnet and Pearl Earrings

Trade was quiet today unfortunately, with us craftspeople facing the age old problem of trying to compete against mass produced imports (organisers - why? when will you learn?!) but if you're in the area tomorrow it's well worth a look. And hopefully those who appreciate a locally made product crafted with love and care will be paying us a visit :). And I won't be tempted to pay another visit to the fudge stall. Thank God there's no one there selling cake.

  1. You know I agree....

    We have no chance against the £1.00 bracelet that has mass produced beads and has no creation what so ever...
