Homeworks Sale 09



Our second Homeworks Sale at the end of November was a great success. Lots of you came to see us armed with your Christmas shopping lists and stayed around to sample some of Sara’s excellent cakes (and of course free fizz on Thursday evening).

We found out that many of you came through word of mouth recommendations, reading about us on our blog and through the excellent editorial coverage we received - a big thank you to Angels & Urchins and Daisy Bridgewater at The Telegraph Magazine to name but a few...

Thanks to everyone at The 20th Century Theatre, especially Liam for his patience and his step ladder and Ben for his eclectic yet festive music selection.

Here are our best bits:























We are hoping to do more sales this year and we are already planning next Christmas, so keep checking back for more news. x
