LovelyCrayfish

We've got a last minute seller...Hannah Crayford the maker behind LovelyCrayfish. I love the ceramics in her etsy shop, and by the looks there'll be lots more to look forward to seeing at the fair; the t-shirt designs on her blog are ace. Might have to get myself some dinosaur stuff and a Yorkshire baby-grow!

May's event page is here xx

NOTHS

Not On The High Street is an online store head-and-shoulders above etsy in its selectivity and therefore all-round quality of goods. They've managed to develop a really good reputation and conquer the "hip mum" and fashionista markets, making them less of a market-place and more of a real store. I LOVE etsy, and it's been great for selling my work, but I must admit that I sometimes despair about the amount of rubbish on there. I've been considering getting a shop-front with them, and was pleased to see that handmade seller Helen Entwistle AKA Memo has recently joined up. Her shop looks great, I love all the photos with simple little props...http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/memoillustration

Also on NOTHS is Sarah Fordham AKA Magasin, who'll be selling at handmade for the first time this May. I've been hounding Sarah to sell at handmade since I first started the fairs, and am thrilled that she can finally make a date. I love her cross-stitched wares (apart maybe from the really bad swears!), and I'm always excited to see her latest creations...follow her on facebook (she's just called Magasin) to see some of her latest work such as Skulls necklaces and those darn cuss-words I mentioned. Her NOTHS shop is here, and these are my favourite items from her store front...

Come along and see both Helen's and Sarah's work in person at Handmade in May, facebook event page here x x x x x

Finest Imaginary

Kim Lawler aka Finest Imaginary is going to be selling at handmade for the first time in May. I've seen her work at Reetsweet fairs and am a big fan. She's got a great range of work, from laser cut jewellery to screen-printed stationary and even coasters! Here's a few of my favourite picks from her etsy store...








Handmade is on May 12th at Wharf Chambers. Facebook event page here

Mr Yen

Today's weekly look at a favourite etsy seller or trend is slightly different to past weeks as I've decided to focus on just one person. And that person is someone I've (and I'm sure many people have) admired for a long while. When I first started handmade craft fairs I used to "shop local" on etsy to see what was being made around Leeds, and stumbled across the amazing papercut artist MrYen. His papercut stationary is so romantic and beautiful. I don't think my words will do it justice so here are some photos to drool over this Monday morning...

nautical and nice

It's Monday!



Following a lovely trip to Amsterdam and cycling along the sea front to the North, past lots of wooden houses with adorable nautical interiors, I've been cooing over nautical things on etsy. If you're not familiar with etsy then now is the time to take a look! They have a great function called "treasury lists", where etsy sellers choose their favourite items, and the best treasuries go on the "front page" allowing shoppers to see some of the loveliest items easily. It means that the front page is always packed with interesting items and themes.

Here's my treasury list for nautical items...sail away
