Mother's Day Craft Fair


Trash Revamp took part in the Mother's Day Craft Fair at Kilburn Village Hall yesterday.


The event was organised by JJ Charms' Lorraine, a fellow Folksy Shop owner, who put on the event to bring together fellow Folksy Crafters in Derbyshire.


What a brilliant idea!

It was great that so many Trash Revamp members got involved, it made the event very much a social event and it was great to meet the other Folksy Folk!

Trash held our monthly meeting at Janines house last weekend and it was great to see everyone!!! Much tea/coffee was drunk and wowing at Kirstie's bump and Baby Millie!! But we have all been busy preparing things for up coming events. Kirstie has a new favourite website that she now orders her excellent boxes from to display her fab jewellery..............

The boxes are made from 100% recycled materials too, which is good for us!! (Forgive the "arty" camera shot H was trying to be creative!!!!)

We also have a Folksy Craft Fair at Kilburn Village Hall on Mothers Day - Sunday 3rd April - and would love everyone to pop along with their Mum's to say hi!! Plus, you can treat Mum to something!!!! Multi-tasking if you ask us!!!! :) We have some brill Mothers Day gift ideas so have a look on our facebook page for an album dedicated to Mother's day!
