Handmade Market gets bigger and better - Again!

Revealed this week... two snippets of most excellent news regarding a new location (and date) for the next Handmade Market and... a full time retail space for the hottest Handmade goods in Canberra!!!

So, while you've been waiting for the next market event, Handmade creator Julie Nichols has been one very busy lady. Confirmed for Sunday March 28th, the market is set to be staged in and around the Devine rooms of Kamberra Winery - lovely! Julie has also revealed that some awesome new local designers have submitted applications this time around, so of course I can't wait.

Then of course we will have the central city retail space launched shortly after the market and I have been lucky enough to be involved in designing Shop Handmade. Here's a sneaky peek at what is on the drawing board...

Loads of spaces for large and small items, jewellery, clothing, art, literature and more... it's going to be a little bit of Handmade heaven!

I'm so there! Love it,

Love Nina x

Tango & James this Christmas...

Only 5 weeks until Christmas... Here's the perfect gift idea for the sassy gals in your life... make up a set from the Tango & James jewellery range at Handmade Market on Saturday November 21st and have it gift wrapped for free, ready to sneak under the tree! There are loads of combinations to please anyone, but here are some of my faves...

I'll also have a limited run of handbags...


and more clocks, lamps and cushions...

All handmade by yours truly right here in Canberra!

Don't miss out, come and find me at the Christmas Handmade Market, I'll be in the "ballroom" inside the Yarralumla Woolshed. It's open on Friday night too, but Tango & James will only be there on Saturday. I love it when you all say hello and I can't wait to see you there...
