Buy Handmade lovelies as Gifts!





Yesterday, I went for a snoop at the first (of many I hope) Spring Fling craft fairs held in the Workstation, Sheffield - I did mention this in my previous entry, so if you missed it, your fault Towners! It was well worth going too, thanks Suz for tagging along with me (she ended up buying some lovely handmade jewellery and cute baby socks - me, I came out empty handed but my mind was full of ideas).
I have decided to dedicate this post to the 'Shiners':) These are just a handful of the sellers at the Craft Fair yesterday, who really caught my eye and think is worth a mentioning (as their stuff is dead good!!). I'm going to put a picture of each 'Shiner' with a link to their website/portfolio so that you can take a look at their treats...Please PLEASE take a look at their works :) All these creators have an ability to combine colours with great effect and have a lovely eye for detail.

Finally, last words, "Handmade is Love!"
