Spring Craft Show 2007
 

We have been exhibiting our work at a number of craft shows this Spring. Easter found us at Blickling Hall in a sunny Norfolk with the Eastern Events Craft Team.  John and Brian from Eastern Events put on some beautifully organized shows at National Trust Properties.  In May we exhibited with them again at Calke Abbey in Derbyshire and featured lots of our new plaque designs. The bats, bees, butterflies and dodos proved to be really popular.

Later in May we exhibited at Hatfield House at the Living Crafts Show, which in spite of persistent rain throughout the four days, was a successful show. This is a great family day out and one of the few shows we get to exhibit with Maggie's husband Tom Betley from Rusticraft Garden Furniture. You get lots of demonstrations, peacocks, maypole and morris dancing, men walking about with owls, (some of them were real) and Mark Speight from Smart.
