Winter seems to have gone on for an age this year (especially with the endless amounts of snow we've all had) but the bulbs are starting to come out of hiding which is a sure sign that Spring is on it's way...hurrah!

We had our first show of the year on the 27th Feb. INSPIRED Craft Fairs is a group that was set up the end of last year by Sophie, together with five other talented, like-minded, crafts people in Berkshire. The group's aim is to support local designer makers and to showcase their work in a monthly Craft & Gift Fair. February's fair saw inspirational jewellery (both silversmithing & a glass artist), ceramics, textiles, floristry, glass painting, handmade books/illustrations, print maker and more. There were also delicious homemade lunches & yummy cakes served by the girls in our Sugarstrands Cafe. We were thrilled with turnout and send a huge thank you to everyone for supporting us!

Our next fair will be on Saturday 27th March, from 10am to 2pm, in Swallowfield. For further information, directions or perhaps an application form for a stall, please get in touch. We are working on a new website for the group which should be up and running soon.

**NEW STOCK ALERT** We are looking forward to new items coming into stock the beginning of May. Several of which are already on the website and available to pre-order now! We are particularly excited about the beautiful Eva Tiffin and Lolita Jugs. Both of these products are hand decorated and come from a Fairtrade organization in Kashmir, India.
