Fairs & New Treasures

Bit of a last minute rush this one as I'm practically out the door for my first Christmas fair, so forgive bad photos and brevity.

Sparkle Contemporary Craft and Gourmet Food Fair is my absolute favourite event ever - comfortable, beautiful, warm and well-organised with hordes of lovely punters, so I'm looking forward to it, although I get stressed and nervous before every event set-up.

It opens tonight (Friday 20th November) 6.00 - 8.30pm and then is open 10.00-5.00 for the rest of the weekend.

I have a few lovely new treasures that will be on sale this weekend - with many making their debut, including these Matrioshka-inspired Russian Folk Bear brooches.

I have also been making some smaller hare necklaces, as I know not everyone likes big statement jewellery like I do.  Here's my favourite piece - the moon gazing hare pendant, complete with a freshwater pearl 'moon'.

Also there are some new bird brooches - ducks and penguins (how seasonal!).

And finally, some Christmas cards - foxes and hares.

I also have Dulwich College Christmas Fair next weekend (Sunday) then two more after that and I'll be posting details about these very soon.

Now I'm off for some deep breathing.
