The Weald Craft Group Christmas fair is on this weekend at the Cooden Beach Hotel and I have a table. It's open 10 til 4 both days. I have bags of course, many of them reduced in price plus I have made leather gift items if you're looking for Christmas presents. Lots of crafters selling their makes - jewellery, glass ware, art, and lots of nick nacks. Hope to see you there

For those who prefer a small backpack for everyday use how about my latest make - a Small Lightweight Brown and Black Embossed Leather Drawstring Backpack. In case you are wondering, my new mannequin (Florence) is a tiny UK size 6/8 so it might look bigger than it is! It only weighs less than 500 grams so is deffinitely lightweight. Full details in my Etsy shop plus the discount code for 15% off is still valid until the end of August for my FB followers. Just enter FBAUG15 at checkout.

Full details in my Etsy shop plus don't forget I am offering a discount of 15% for the month of August to my FB followers. Just enter the code FBAUG15 at checkout.
