The July roll-call

July is turning out to be a very exciting month for the Devonport Craft Market. As well as some of our regulars, we have quite a few new stallholders who will be bringing some fantastic new items to the market. The July market will feature garden art, gorgeous childrens', mens' and womens' clothing as well as hand knitted coats for the furry friends in your life. We have some beautiful art and photography; stunning jewellery and accessories and wooden sushi equipment. If that weren't enough, we have some fabulous gift ideas and things to adorn your home. Come and pay us a visit, grab a coffee and a bite to eat, listen to some music and have some fun!

Thank you

Thank you so much for all the amazing stallholders and entertainers who helped yesterday's market a success. It was wonderful to see all the new ideas and creations as well as the fab vintage items and I have to say that I spent quite a bit on things for me (and my family didn't miss out either). It is a dangerous place to be amongst all those wonderful things to buy.
Our buskers, Mark and Damon, played beautifully and I am looking forward to hearing more from them in the future.
Alice Lee of Alice in Balloon land was a roaring success with kids of all ages and and it was a delight to see those amazing balloon sculptures being proudly carried around the market by their new owners.
Thank you too to the customers who came along to the market from far and wide to buy gifts and treats. People were there shopping for wedding and birthday presents as well as things for themselves and their family. It was lovely to see some repeat customers. Its a testament to the quality of the items on sale that people are coming back for more.
The next market is Sunday 5th July. Watch this space for details of the stallholders for that market.

Sunshine forecast

I have to confess that I did a mini-victory dance when I saw the weather forecast last night (it was only a mini one because it was too cold to move much from under my blanket on the couch). Sunshine for Sunday... Yay! Don't forget to wrap up warm though as it is likely to be pretty cold.

I think the cold weather is proving inspiring some of our stallholders. I know several of our regular crafters have been busy coming up with new ideas and I'm looking forward to seeing them on the day. We also have several new stallholders attending, so the market will be full of exciting new finds.

We have two talented local musicians scheduled to play on Sunday: Mark Howden (who also runs Depot Sound) and Damon Birchfield who plays acoustic folk music. I'm really looking forward to hearing them perform and I will be saving some gold coins to pop in their hats. We also have a balloon artist, Alice Lee of Alice in Balloon Land who will be creating her fab balloon sculptures in the morning.

Do have a look at our photos and the list of stallholders. They stay up on the blog so if you need to contact anyone either click on the shop/entertainer name or email me and I will try to put you in touch.

Looking forward to seeing you all there!
