Independent Makers and Designer Gift Guide, Christmas 2018

Over the last few years we have made a pledge to support as many small independent makers as possible. Last year we tried to buy all our Christmas gifts from fellow makers and designers. We are aiming to do the same this year. Over the last few years we have participated in numerous craft fairs and makers markets and all the while we have built up a nice little directory of lovely independent makers whose products we love. We though we would share them with you. 

Join us and shop independent this Christmas!
