I have applied for Post Newcomers at the British Craft Trade Fair in 2020. Saturday 4th April will be open to the public and the following three days will be open to trade. This is the first time this fair is going to be open for the public for one day, this was a controversial opinion for the traders and buyers, however we shall see how it goes! It was a great experience the first time I showed work here, and since I have learned so much about how I could make my Post Newcom

I have just finished at the Northern Craft fair event located at The Baltic, Gateshead. It was SO fun and a great experience, I highly recommend applying any craft makers for next year. I loved it. It was a success. I have met other passionate makers and creators, whom I hope to see again soon. The event was made up of various amount of styles and makers, and proved to be popular, as each day (sat and sun) were very busy. Many people took my business card, so much so I ran ou

The next fair I will be holding a stand at will be at the Northern Craft Fair in Gateshead at BALTIC Centre For Contemporary Art. This is the first time the Northern Craft Fair will be coming this far north, and it is a great opportunity to see and immerse yourself in handmade craft. The event will be on the 5th-6th October. #BALTICCentreForContemporaryArt #baltic #gateshead #newcsatle #craft #craftfair #event #creativebusiness #creativeblogger #ceramics #ceramicsblgoger #cer

Yesterday I returned from Penrith, as I was holding a stand at Potfest in the Pens. I loved Potfest when I first visited three years ago, and this year I had the great opportunity to sell there myself. It was a great success and definitely a place I would like to continue to return to. Not only was I surrounded by creative like-minded people, everybody including the returning public were so welcoming. Other exhibiters included beginners, and experienced ceramists/potters, whi

My next upcoming event is at Potfest in the Pens, Cumbria (2nd-4th August). I have previously attended this event as a member of the public, however this time I received the great opportunity to participate and have my own stall/pen. I am looking forward to be surrounded by like-minded, passionate people, this would be a great opportunity to network. As it is my first time showing at the three day event, I am unsure about the amount of work to take and what products would be

Having a stand at the British Craft Trade Fair was an amazing experience. A chance to meet fellow makers, buyers, and stockists, its a great feeling being surrounded by like-minded people who have a passion for their craft and the arts. As I was located in the Newcomers section, I was surrounded by others who have little or no experience at trade fairs, yet they too were determined to make their passion into a business. Having a stand and decorating it in a way to stand out w
