Open House Exhibition 

This weekend was the first time we officially opened our doors to local craftspeople and members of the public for an open House Exhibition, the first of many so we hope! 

Our thanks go to all of you who exhibited your work and to all who came along and supported this event. The sense of community was very strong, and wonderful to experience!  

We had a very busy few days, and I was too busy welcoming visitors and selling to take pictures of the event, so these are just some I took once everyone had left, to give you a sense of the event

13 year old Pip Van Spyk did  a roaring trade on his series of match-stick castle candle-holders

All that posing and poor singing paid off with my collection of Christmas cards which were very well received (better than my singing)

Beautiful Jewelry by our lovely Sally Booth, from Donington village.  

Some festive plant holders courtesy of Fairprice Furnishings went away to brighten up many a doorstep over the Christmas season

Jane Austen would approve - beautiful period dresses made by the nimble fingers of Claire from Grantham 

Now this one would grace the best of bachelor pads. Martini anyone?! 

Rustic drop away pine table from Fairprice Furnishings, with one of the wreaths made by our Homeschoolers which went down a storm

Farmhouse chairs and table from Fairprice Furnishings 

Love this little set of drawers 

It wasn't just me that loved these still life studies done in oil paint by Annie Van Spyk, each a masterpiece of observation,great materials and technique - not biased or anything.....

Two little monkeys I found picking over the day's leftovers!
