Winter Craft Fayres 2024

Here’s a brief look back at the craft fairs I’ve taken part in so far this winter…

I Am Handmade

This is the first year, since before the pandemic, that the I Am Handmade market had been on; organised by the Southchurch Community College, it was a great event to be part of. Although the weather was a little grim (thanks to Storm Bert!) and we were moved to a room upstairs at short notice, it proved to be a lovely day.

Thank you to all the visitors that braved the weather and dropped by.

These are some of the woolly items that found new homes…

Christmas Eco Fayre

This is an annual event, held at the Leigh Road Baptist Church in November. The visitor numbers are good and the atmosphere is always warm and welcoming. The amazing selection of cakes available at the cafe are very hard to resist!

Some of the eco products I had on my stall were my 100% cotton washcloths, that proved very popular…

Folk and Bespoke

This monthly event is always one of my favourites. Organised by Katy at Folk & Bespoke this event was held at Leigh Community Centre on 9 November. There is always a varied selection of quality, handmade crafts made by some very talented local makers.

Set up and ready to go…

At this time of year, the craft fair had a festive vibe and plenty of lovely visitors.

Phew! Three fayres in three weeks – and then I signed up for one more!

If you missed any of these events I’ll be at the Farmers Market at Scott’s of Southend garden centre on Saturday 7 December for more fun!
