Christmas CRAFTfest!

Christmas CRAFTfest –24th Nov - 1st Dec


No sooner has the September CRAFTfest finished before we’re planning for the
November CRAFTfest.  The perfect time and place for a spot of Christmas shopping!  A place where you will be able to browse and peruse lots of handicraft stalls at your leisure, and from the comfort of your own home.  You’ll get to view some amazing items crafted from an incredibly talented bunch of people.

For the Nov CRAFTfest I am the BLUE team leader so thought I’d give you a few thoughts about my team members!

So give me a B – Brilliant
Give me an L – Like Minded
Give me a U – Unique
Give me an E – Enterprising

And what have you got? My B.L.U.E team mates!

The BLUE team will be showcasing and selling items that are:
Beautiful
Lovely
Unusual
Exceptional!

Offering handcrafted items from a whole range of categories including gifts, art, homeware, fashion, card craft, jewellery and so much more, you'll be spoilt for choice at the Christmas CRAFTfest!

Over the next few weeks I will be giving a bit more information about the sellers in the BLUE team, along with their stalls and some of the amazing items that will be for sale.  I'll be posting on the CRAFTfest Blog more about the Blueys - check them out here!

If you want a sneak preview of what you can buy from ColaCreations, then have a quick look at my stall!

If you want to take part in Nov CRAFTfest, there is still time to book your stall.  Click here for more information!

New knitted creations

Following on from my post a few weeks ago I have finished some knitting projects and they are now available to buy - just in time for the cold weather!  All items are available to buy from WOWThankYou.

 Chunky Knitted Cowl - Turquoise



 Chunky hand knitted cowl.  A wonderfully soft and cosy snood style cowl designed to keep you warm and snug on a cold day!  The yarn used is mixed and the cowls are available in a soft turquoise of a beautiful dusky pink colour.
 


Chunky Knitted Cowl - Dusky Pink






Cable knitted arm warmers - Lime Green




A pair of hand knitted cable arm warmers.  These practical and stylish arm warmers are designed to keep your arms and hands warm on a cold day but still allow your fingers full movement!  The yarn used is mixed (acrylic and wool) and a vibrant lime green colour.


Ribbed knitted arm warmers - Black and White




A pair of hand knitted ribbed arm warmers. The yarns used are mixed (acrylic and wool) and are black and white in colour.

Surely it is now time to purchase some more wool and start click clicking those needles again! :) 

Also, just a quick note about the November CRAFTfest - a great place to pick up some amazing and unique presents for Christmas!  Watch out for further updates!
