Samantha Morris

It can be tricky buying original Christmas gifts for older relatives and friends, luckily Samantha Morris has hit the nail on the head with these smart, witty coasters. Guaranteed to bring a smile on Christmas morning (especially with a glass of fizz placed on top).

Sam is back at Homeworks for another year and you can buy from her whole collection on Sunday 13 December:

Sirplus

Sirplus cleverly make high quality clothing out of surplus materials - starting out with boxer shorts from surplus shirting fabric, they now source cashmeres, wools and linens to produce a wide range of mens and womenswear. They specialise in dressing gowns and Nehru collar waistcoats and jackets.

They’re coming along to both our Homeworks events on 6th & 13th December:

Muir and Osborne

Sally Muir and Joanna Osborne are the creative duo behind Muir and Osborne, a luxury knitwear brand exporting to stores in the United States, Japan and Europe. Several pieces of their knitwear are in the permanent collection of the V & A. In addition to designing and making beautifully unique and easy to wear cashmere pieces they are the authors of the bestselling Best in Show series of knitting books.

They'll be bringing along their brand new book Patch’s Grand Dog Show to Homeworks on Sunday 6 December along with their Cashmere Collection. They might even have some of their delightful knitted dogs (I wonder if they’ve got any whippets...)

Abalonstar

Ana is a London based Basque born artist and over the years she has lived, worked and exhibited in the US, UK and Spain. She makes all her pieces by hand, experimenting with 3d digital designs which are printed and used as moulds. She then makes porcelain pieces using traditional techniques.

This is Ana’s first year at Homeworks and she will be bringing a selection of her Abalonstar porcelain candle holders and other vessels on Sunday 13 December:

We Are Scamp

It’s a family affair at Scamp - sisters Stacey and Jennifer established the business and design everything in their range. Jennifer is also one of our Homeworks team, working very hard behind the scenes organising this year’s events.
The business began in 2010 making personalised pictures for baby gifts and has grown to include screen printed baby wear, nursery accessories and personalised gifts for funky girls and boys.
Creating wooden products to complement the existing range has been a strong new focus.
They’re Homeworks regulars and will be at our Christmas Bazaar on both Sunday 6 & 13 December this year. Come along and find perfect personalised gifts for all the little ones on your Christmas list:

Tinker

Tinker is a lifestyle store inspired by Scandinavian design. They offer an edited collection of simple and beautiful things to give as gifts (or to keep for yourself, you choose...).

They’re bringing a selection of their beautiful jewellery, homewares and stationery to Homeworks on the 6 December:

We’ll be posting more Christmas Bazaar previews over the next couple of weeks so keep checking back and see what marvellous makers and businesses we have lined up for you this year...
