Style savvy shoppers with an eye for the desirable and original should head to the heart of Devon this June (10th-12th), for a three-day shopping extravaganza offering a stunning array of chic, contemporary must-haves from a selection of the UK’s most innovative, award winning designer-makers.
Crammed with desirable fashion accessories and functional and decorative objects for your home, you'll be sorely tempted by the unique shopping opportunities. Be spoilt by the dazzling variety of handmade jewellery, gorgeous leather handbags, bespoke furniture, fabulous fashions and exceptional interior products in ceramic, silver, glass, metal, wood and textiles.
Over 165 of the UK’s best designer-makers will showcase their work at this impressive three-day celebration of contemporary craft, which offers you the chance to be the envy of your friends and family by coming home with an affordable original designer item.
You'll also get to meet the acclaimed designer makers behind these exquisite handmade items and get your own creative juices flowing by booking into one of the event's workshops or watching a live demonstration. You can have a stab at a variety of activities including making mosaics, jewellery and sculpture to name a few. The Fair will be brimming with live action by blacksmiths, potters, glass blowers and much more. There's plenty to keep little ones entertained too with an action packed Children's Craft tent where kids can get creative (and messy!) and try weaving, candle dipping and rag rug making and take their unique creations home too.
