Harry the Hedgehog and Made by Hand

Hereford Christmas market is flooding the town with it's variety of stands next weekend (8th + 9th of December). On Saturday Bev Milward and Bronwen Tyler-Jones are sharing a stand, where I'll be purchasing my Dad's Christmas prezzie, and on Sunday Hereford College of Arts have a stand.  The money from the work and bits and bobs that us 3rd years make is going towards our fundraising for New Designers in June. Kate Williams will also be contributing some of her stock which we are very grateful of.  For this stall I am making some hedgehogs! Here is a photo of Harry the Hedgehog.

I thought that this was appropriate considering my work haha.  I am also planning on framing some of my drawings from last year and selling them as i had quite a good response from them.  I'm not able to take part in the stall itself, however I am looking forward to hearing about how it went and how much we raised.

Yesterday I went on a road trip to Tredegar house with Del, Kate and Ambrose, to set up the Hereford College of Arts stand at Made by Hand.  The people exhibiting their work here are:

Penny Allen

Anna Blair

Josh Devenish

Anne Blades

Joe Sleight

Robyn Golding

Becca Jones (me)

Charlotte Wright

Carolyn Watson

Jo Kelly

Tom North

Danny Wapples

Nikki Burns

Genesis Rowley

I don't know about everyone else, but I had a fun afternoon figuring out where people's work needed to be placed, and painting plinths! At the end of the evening we had it all up looking fab, and I came back home to bed feeling cold, but very satisfied with the end result.  I'm looking forward to going back tomorrow to man the stand with Hope, Clare and Laura for the day, and to have a look around the craft fair itself! Here are some photos of the stand:-

My work has been placed under a transparent lid, like a museum display case, which really works for my collection of bits and bobs.
