You may remember we mentioned a new venue for 2025, well here it is!!

This magnificent grade II 18th century house is one of the most interesting & attractive stately homes in the North West. Not only is it a popular location for many well known TV productions, it is also famously known for its beautiful gardens, particularly the double Herbaceous borders which according to the 1846 Arley Estate plans was the first to be planted in England.
With over 15 acres of beautiful gardens, there is plenty for you and your families to enjoy and explore.

truly is a wonderful place boasting in character, charm and interest, making it an ideal setting for an Artisan fair. When you visit the show this summer we are sure you will be struck by the warm atmosphere and the feeling that Arley is a much loved family home.

Watch this space 👀

But for now 👇

As makers ourselves we take great pride in the presentation of our display whilst out at an event as do many of our fellow artisan friends. Taking part in these events is not a hobby for these guys it’s their full time job. Hours, days and months are spent preparing for these big events and they should all be recognised for their hard efforts.
Last week we held our awards for the best dressed stand again at Staunton Harold and we would like to share with you the two that particularly caught our eye. May we just also point out how difficult this is to choose only 2 out of 85 when everyone has made huge efforts to display their handmade pieces so beautifully, so a really big congratulations to you all 👏

Congratulations to our 2024 winners

First place
Runner up

Your displays really stood out and caught our eyes. The attention to detail was perfect taking in consideration for this year’s theme “swan lake” 🦢

We look forward to have you back next year 👏

And once again thank you to each and everyone of the amazing artisans that joined us last week, your all stars in our eyes🤩 🙌
