Meet the Makers

Meet the Makers Home for HANDMADE
"proud to be putting "Handmade" back into British Crafts" Look forward to meeting/working with you,

The group was founded back in 2013 after, as artists we became despondent trading at "CRAFT" shows where there were more and more bought in products (mostly made in China) therefore as the name suggests you can only trade with us if you have designed and made your own products. Although we believe there is a place for everyone in terms of what you sell Meet the Makers has a unique approach that t

he person that designs and makes the item has to be the person that sells it. People love handmade and really buy into the group as they meet who has made their new gift. Our commitment to you as organisers for the group will be to create a safe selling space, in prime locations, fully promoted through local press, social media & promo flyers and last but not least to be fair and consistent in our approach when we select our artists and crafters. So if you meet our criteria of making your own designs, want to be part of a great group and get the opportunity to trade at some great shows just fill in the "Contact us" form and we will add you to our current list of talented individuals.
