Nostell Priory September Fair

What a busy weekend this has been and in such a lovely location with brilliant weather too!
This is me with my stall at Nostell Priory in Wakefield. This is just a selection of my products, together with my new and very popular lines: notice boards, doorstops, laundry bags and Christmas twiggy wreaths. I have to say this was the start of the weekend and by the end I was looking just a tad bit tired and looking forward to putting my feet up! But hey ho, it was great to spend it with like-minded people and get such positive feedback on the range.


Have a look at the pink, girly pocket notice board below.....there's now a waiting list for them. If you are interested in for yourself or for a fab present for your bestest friend or lovely daughter, sister, Mum, aunty....just give me a call: 0779 959 0371 or drop me an email: info@bevmadden.com . They are £35 + postage and packing and come in a variety of colours, so even if you want another colour combo, I can do that for you too. Great for getting organised!

Craft Fairs - Autumn 2008

Well it seems ages since I last wrote in the blog. Where has time gone to? Well I have been rather busy in the sewing room - getting ready for all of the craft fairs that are coming up between now and Christmas. Yes....Christmas! Oh my goodness. No sooner have the kids gone back to school than we see all the cards and presents in the shops for Christmas. If you can't beat them, then join them.
So I have put together a small, so far, collection for the present buying season. I start this weekend at Nostell Priory Craft Fair. Why not come along and see for yourself what delights there are and start your shopping early and take the stress out of the coming months.
Look out for my new "Head Gardener" Apron, selection of doorstops and notice boards, and laundry bags. It's so exciting... being creative!!!
