Our Music In The Park Craft Superheroes

Posted by handmademakersmarket on May 16, 2012 · 1 Comment 

We had a fantastic day at Music In The Park on Sunday May 13th. By some miracle the weather was gorgeous, from our little craft tent we could hear all the music going on and there were 1000s of people there during the course of the day.

But, of course, the best thing about the whole event were our craft superheroes! So we thought it was only fair to share a bit about each of them – you can visit them all by clicking on their wonderful pictures!

Animagics

A gorgeous shop run by Lizzie Wilson is home to artworks and other creations inspired by her love of animals and nature! The range includes very cute polymer clay animal jewellery (very popular with the kids at the festival) steampunk inspired pieces and her range of bookworm jewellery.

Down With The Kids

A quirky children’s handmade clothing boutique with a range that includes pretty party dresses as well as rocking hand painted biker jacket t-shirts. There is something for every young cool dude. Do the kids say that now? We might not be down the the kids but Down With The Kids sure are.

Becky Button

Unsurprisingly Becky loves buttons and her brightly-coloured button-centric jewellery is truly gorgeous! But her talents don’t stop there she also makes lasercut acrylic jewellery – we love her ‘perfect for the Jubilee’ bunting necklaces and funky animals.

Recycloanalyst

Ann Jenkins transforms rescued vintage wind-up watches and other items of unwanted jewellery and gives them another chance to be admired as Steampunk Industrial Chic bracelets, some of her jewellery even feature recycled, working quartz watches and the effect is stunning.

Hannah Paine

Jeweller Hannah Paine’s gorgeous necklaces and bracelets designed with beads and semi precious stones are little works of chunky colourful gorgeousness but it’s her delicately hand dyed wooden necklaces that had us drooling all day!

Girl Of The 80s

Described as the home of kitsch, retro and unique jewellery, Girl Of The 80s is a place to find something different and out of the ordinary. Ellen Adair’s upcycled comics, Kawaii sweeties, kitsch cartoon and movie bubble necklaces, earrings and bracelets are super fun jewellery loveliness!

Sheri Hill

Sheri’s shabby chic backpacks and bag created featuring her unique illustrations are totally eye-catching and made with eco-friendly materials like unbleached canvas and pigment inks they do good as well as look good! We are big fans of her special Jubilee bags, a great way to celebrate!
