The Handmade Fair with Walter & May 16-18 September 2016

 

It's very exciting - I'm being represented at The Handmade Fair (yes, the Kirsty Allsop one!) by the fabulous Walter & May. Walter and May is a great online shop consisting entirely of handmade loveliness and is run from her Home HQ by entrepreneur, Beth Elsdon. If you haven't yet taken a look at Walter & May now is just the time.  So, get ahead of the game (I could even mention the C word  - it is September after all - but I won't) and find some gifts for your loved ones or even yourself.
