British Craft Trade Fair 2020
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
Other Fairs/Markets Leading up to Christmas
As Northern Craft Fair has now finished, I am looking at booking a stall at Tynemouth Market every Sunday on the run up to Christmas (or try and book). I also have pen at Crafts in the Pen at Skipton on 16-17th November. I loved it last time and thought I would try again this year too. Its a great day out, I highly recommend visiting. I am also adding more listings to my Etsy shop, so if you decide to buy later ;) #stalls #newcastle #tyneandwear #tynemouth #maker #handmade #h


British Craft Trade Fair Event
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.

Future Events
After Christmas, although it has been quiet with stalls.. I have been accepted to hold a stand at the BCTF (British Craft Trade Fair) in Harrogate. This is a chance for me to show my collection and gain stockists. This will be a first for me and my business and a very exciting step progression. So recently I have been researching and gathering inspiration for future designs which would be desirable. I will continue to blog about this process up to the event itself. As well a

Crafts in the Pen, Skipton Auction Mart
It has been a busy and fulfilling weekend at The Crafts in the Pen, Skipton Auction Mart. I have made many sales as well as commissions, and meeting other stall holders, overall it was very enjoyable. Hopefully I will get the opportunity to hold another stall at Skipton Auction Mart, either in the summer at Art in the Pen or returning to Crafts in the Pen in November. #2019 #skipton #skiptonauctionmart #maker #ceramics #ceramic #design #craft #christmas #stall #craftsinthepen

Simply Rhino Level One
For three days I have been learning more about Rhino at The Goldsmith Centre, London. I have had some experience using this software during my Bachelor degree at The University of Sunderland and at work using Matrix 9.0 (a plug-in to Rhino, which is more jewellery specific). It was a three full day course, which I can't recommend enough. The teaching was led by Sean Cowell and he was very knowledgable and patient with the group, I am certainly going to attend the next level
