Get Ready for The Handmade Fair 2017 + ticket discount!

Make-aholics of Britain, its time to get excited for the best craft fair of the year- Kirstie Allsopp's Handmade Fair!

Set on the green of Hampton Court Palace, the fair will be returning for it's 4th year from Friday 15th- Sunday 17th September and as always there's plenty of activities to get excited about. Creatives- sharpen your craft knife and get your paintbrush at the ready for what's set to be another amazing year!

The fair gives you many an opportunity to try your hand at everything from crafts such as transforming a tote bag, to hoop screen printing, duck tape roses and so much more! 

Kirstie will be returning to the Super Theatre to talk arts, crafts and other projects with her hand picked experts in each field such as Annie Sloan, Mr X Stitch and many more. I'm super excited and proud that my wonderful friend Claire of Claireabelle Makes will be taking to the stage to talk all things Pinterest live on stage which is guaranteed to inspire everyone with their future crafting endeavours. 

Having attended The Handmade Fair in 2015, 2016, The Handmade Christmas Fair and meeting Kirstie herself, I can safely say I'm hooked and incredibly excited for this year. There's so much to do, see and make your creative juices will be flowing in no time, especially in the feel good atmosphere of the fair. 

And it doesn't stop there- oh no. As well as workshops, grand makes and theatre talks there is of course an exquisite shopping village too where you can stock up on your craft materials, buy hand crafted pieces (perfect for Christmas!) and  feast on the wonderful artisan food on offer.
