MUST HAVE… a smaller footprint launches commitment to a sustainable future. All products and artists featured in the exhibition have a green ethos, demonstrated either through a fair trade policy or by using recycled or sustainable materials.

As we continue to consider our consumer valueshas looked at how artists and makers are developing a focus on turning green, from re-worked scrabble pieces transformed to beautiful charm bracelets to a ‘butterfly clip’ installation.

Choose from a range of one off pieces that will thrill and delight or an eco product with sustainable credentials that offers a feel good factor.

Featured makers include ruler trees by Lizzie Thomas, creature boxes by Mary Moox, textiles by Alison Willoughby, furniture by Sam Morgan, jewellery by Frances Wadsworth-Jones and T-boo, products by Blue Marmalade and fair-trade gifts by Nukulu.

All are welcome to come along to the Meet the Maker afternoon on Saturday 21 November, anytime between 2-5pm, with an opportunity to talk to some of the makers featured in the show, while enjoying festive mince pies and mulled wine.</large<
