Markets In November

I have been busy creating displays for markets the week just gone. Especially for Old Spitalfields market which I had to get it in on the tube, so that meant I had to be able to carry everything that I took. So with a large suite case, a back pack, my chair over my shoulder and a pin board I travelled in to Liverpool street and walked to Old Spitalfield Market.
Here is my stall at Old Spitalfields Market

  

 
It was a great market to be at as the stall holders where all a very high quality and the shoppers where there to buy something special, I hope that we managed that between all of us. Thanks to Mary from We Make London for organising the stalls. I think they had a great time selling the book Inspired London too.
The next place to find me is at Breakspear School this Friday 16th November between 7 and 10pmBushey Road, Ickenham, UB10 8JA

Book Launch

On Thursday it was the Press and Designers party for the pre-launch of the Inspired London book.


We got our own copy of the book to take home and we got to meet so many great designers. I few of us knew each other virtually so it was nice to put a real face behind the product.

The book contains 162 designers from around London, oozing talent and creative skills.

This is Alex from Creating Trouble and myself.
Alex makes beautiful mosaic items, she has a shop on Etsy and is frequently selling her items at various craft markets in the London Area.

I also met up with Jaina from Polka Dot Sundays, whom is currently running more workshops to make her beautiful birds.

Helen from Frances and Francis who makes the most amazing paper flowers - they put mine to shame.

Kalema from Called Beautiful whom makes stationary, cards and organisers, she will be at Old Spitalfields Market on the 10th November and 22nd December.


I also met Valarie from Descerting Chi Chi whom makes exciting jewellery and mixed media.

Valarie is middle right and Alex far right.

With the room packed full of designers it was hard to get to meet everyone but the book shows so many talented designers. You can get your hands on a copy of the book from the 10th November at Old Spitalfields Market.
