Minx Made

Already working on planning the next event but I'm always looking at growing my events and trying new things so if there is a venue you'd like me to try and book please let me know!

I want to make my events customer friendly as well as simple for my stall holders so if you ever have a request for a venue please let me know and I'll see what I can do.

A few flower related pieces I still have left after the craft fayre!

I have 5 flower vases in all the colours of the rainbow at £15 each. I absolutely love this design I think it's so bright and colourful and would look beautiful in a window with the sun shining through.

The rose style jar has just a hint of glitter to make it seem even more magical and is only £10!

Both wine glasses are £7 each (or both for £10) and are the perfect way to add that summer feel to your drinks

Huge thank you to everyone who's taken down any posters for me, I've just been out and finished the rest. It took me a little longer to get to this time but all posters have been taken down!

Thank you to everyone who came to the event today! I've just sent the £200 donation to Castlefield Dog Rescue to help them in their amazing work rescuing dogs. I'm so grateful for such an amazing community that really comes together to support eachother. This donation wouldn't be possible without the support of our community

A book written by local Barry Liggett will be sold at the event along with some of his beautiful photography work

Can't wait to see him on June 22nd at 9am-12.30 in the Spondon village hall

Next up is Lotus & Lola

Michelle has been to a few events now, and she always has something new to impress us with!

I think Michelle says it best, so I'll let her describe her beautiful work:

🐶 My name is Michelle. I am the owner of Lotus & Lola ( Lola is my best friend, my gorgeous Labrador!)
I have always been creative and love anything from up-cycling furniture to resin.

I started Lotus & Lola in 2022 and what an adventure it’s been so far and I can’t wait to see what the future brings.

On my stall you will find handmade items from wood to resin from plaques to earrings.

I am able to do personalised bespoke gifts through order only. 🐶

Our next stall is Apple Nellie Scrabble Art returning for another event!

She makes beautiful customised pieces with Scrabble letters to add extra personalisation. All of her items are so cute and can be personalised to fit the receiver perfectly. I know her stall is going to be amazing!

At our last event Rachel said:

🍎 Hi, I'm Rachel and have always enjoyed crafting and making items and thought I would share my hand-made products by selling at craft fairs, so I created Apple Nellies [ name inspired by my late Great Auntie Nellie who owned a Fruit and Vegatable shop all her life]
I can take orders and make custom pieces... Wording can also be added to anything (space permitting) 🍎

Can't wait to see them on June 22nd (9am-12.30) at the Spondon Village hall!

Alyson sells a huge selection of hair bows, in a variety of sizes, patterns and colours, a bow for every season and occasion. She also offers a small selection of handmade candle holders and keyrings.

Moonlit Crafts and Gifts Artist

Next up is Jeanneous

Jeanne handmakes all her items, offering a wide range of bracelets, necklaces and decorations and now pens too!

I've personally been wearing Jeanne's jewelry for years and it's always comfortable, I've never had a piece break either (and I'm not light handed) I'm always impressed by their durability. I now also have a custom pen and it's so comfortable to hold and write with even for long periods of time, and as a uni student that's very important!

These are just examples of her work and she'll have a huge range on the day or she offers custom pieces if you place an order.

Can't wait to see them on June 22nd (9am-12.30) at the Spondon Village hall!

Another returning stall Heart Felt Flower Fairies and Friends

Her items are perfect decor and with how customisable they are you can find the perfect one to fit the personality of the receiver.

Melanie says
💐I started making felt flowers during lock down and since then moved to felt flower fairies … now the witches, fairies and mystical friends form their own little unique personalities which brings magical smiles where ever they are. 💐

Thanks to Spondon Online for making the poster again, they're always a huge help with these events.

All posters went up yesterday so hopefully you'll start noticing them around Spondon!

Next we have Cute Angel Crafts

I was lucky enough to get to speak with Isobelle's mum when she was booking the stall. Isobelle makes all of the items herself and does multiple craft fayres (doing 11 last year!) and her supportive mum helps her talk to customers at the craft fayres. This stall really hits home for me as an autistic artist, I'm looking forward to getting to meet Isobelle and see her beautiful work in person!

😇Cute Angel Crafts sells keepsakes, gifts and accessories, including unique necklaces, original keyrings, beautiful charms and other small art pieces, all handmade by 12 year old Isobelle. We also sell fidgets to fundraise for charity and to promote awareness of Selective Mutism. 😇

This is her first event and I feel so honoured we get to share that with her, I know this amazing community will welcome her with open arms!

She makes beaded jewellery (which won't be available on the day but please message her if you're interested!), macrame and wrapped stones. I love how colourful all her items are, they'll definitely add a beautiful pop of colour on the day!

💎 My name is Jenny & I've been interested in crafts of all varieties since I can remember. I love making the macrame items, it's so versatile from dream catchers, bracelets, bookmarks, bags the list goes on. I also make wire wrapped tumble stones. The stones come in different colours and shapes and I wrap them in wire to make a pendant. The pendant are then put either on a chain or thong. I'm so looking forward to doing my very 1st craft fair at spondon 💎

Our 4th stall is Handmade Loveliness by Katie! Katie Avon

She offers a wide range of jams & chutneys, pickles and relishes to suit your taste!

Next up is a charity stall Logans dream run by Sarah J Smedley

This is a very important stall for a young boy with hydrocephalus and spina bifida, his mother is raising money to take him on the holiday of his dreams next year. She's such a lovely lady and I know our amazing community will come together to support her family.

I'll let Sarah describe her stall in her own words, because she says it better than I could:

💙This summer we’re going all out to raise money to take our disabled son on holiday next year. Our fundraising has gotten so big that we’re now also raising for the shine charity so everything raised will be split 50/50.
The best raffle you’ll see this year has some fantastic prizes, from a signed notts forest shirt to photoshoots with prints, A free MOT, barbers, spa days, escape rooms, dance lessons, paintballing to days and free meals at posh restaurants. There will be a massive 25 winning tickets with absolutely fabulous prizes from some of the UK’s biggest companies!

We have children’s lucky dips and funky bags, to probably the best tombola you’ll come across all year. Everything has been specifically bought to fundraise which means there’s no second hand items!

We can’t wait to see you there!💙

I can't wait to see them there on June 22nd (9-12.30) at the Spondon village hall

A familiar face! My mad fat jewellery, run by Hayley Mitchell

Jewellery stalls are always so popular at these events so I have a few this time who all do amazingly unique items.

Hayley's items can be hoops, hooks or studs in gold or silver. She takes orders too so if you don't see the perfect item on the day then please ask about placing custom orders.

Her pieces look so elegant whilst being able to show off your interests too!

Some very exciting news

MinxMade is now on display in a shop! 'Jolly Ducks & Snooty Cats' (on Lincoln Steep Hill) run by the lovely Sheila and Julie sells a wide range of art from different artists.

Including, but not limited to, crochet, resin art, wooden items, ceramics and paintings. I'm honoured to have my work displayed with so many other amazing artists and it's lovely to meet new artists whilst I'm at uni. Lincoln has a lovely community of crafters and I can't wait to meet more!

AVAILABLE STALL!

I've just had a single stall open up so if you're interested please message me to book!

It's for the 9-12.30 event on June 22nd at the Spondon village hall

Stall fee is £15

For anyone wondering how my free customisations work

The first two pictures are of a treat jar I posted, beautiful but not what the customer envisioned and so everything in red was added (for no additional cost). This item is one of the pieces I've customised most but was still quite simple overall

I want all of my items to be perfect for all my customers, doing extra personalisations makes me happy because I know that item is going to be loved

Please never hesitate to ask for an item to be customised, I'm always happy to discuss what you're wanting and how I can make it work.
