Christmas 2011

This Sunday is the first of our four Christmas Craft Markets at the Salusbury School Canteen at Queens Park Farmers’ Market. For those of you who have never visited before, the recently refurbished school canteen is a lovely light filled space right next to the weekly Queens Park Farmers’ Market - an ideal spot to pick up some delicious food, vegetables, flowers and decorations as the Christmas season kicks off.

We will be transforming the canteen into an emporium of handmade and designer maker delights every Sunday for the next four weeks with an ever changing selection of good stuff from our talented makers.

There will be an update before each fair showcasing what we have on offer, here we go with a small selection from week one:
